oh gosh! ((ABOVE POST)) I think we should all post pics of our beloved walls..lol. I used to spray with Bitter apple but you're right- you sure need a whole lot more than a bottle! I usually keep Daisy in her pen when no one's home. SHe wouldn't chew on the walls if someone's around..

it seems to be a trend that they grow out of it. Edgar ate at the wall also. he would eat up carpet sometimes, too. that's a pain!

he's 2 now and doesn't eat at walls anymore. (hooray!) my husband was pretty ticked about it.

So white vinigar works??? Does it stay on the objects you spray it on awhile??? My friends dog is chewing her porch spindels down and I was wondering if vinigar would help??

Oh, you bet white vinegar works! I use it now, it def has a ''lasting'' scent wherever you spray. It works great for accidents on the carpet, floors, etc.

Only thing is that hubby hates the lingering smell of vinegar so I only use it sparingly and when she has accidents. I actually bought a spray bottle to put it in (you want to dilute it a little and mix it with water).

Emma has recently started chewing on the 2 walls by her x-pen and she only does it when we are gone so I'm going to have to try this! Thanks
