My dog chews anything he can when he can.How do I stop that and how can I make sure that he won't do it ever again.I told my mom to get apple spray, that stuff you spray around your house.There's just one little problem,we have a two story house and my mom doesn't want to have to spray the whole house.I have three dogs.one of them is golden retiver named Murphy.(80259?or Murphy)if you want to see him,go type Murphy in the serch box when you go to dog blogs.The other two dogs are there to.But anyways,so how do I stop that problem with out buying apple spray?PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is your dog a puppy? If so, it's probably teething. Just like babies do! Whenever your dog chews something you can always give him a firm "no", or maybe spray him with water? And also, Oliver chews things just before he goes to sleep, so maybe your doggie is tired. Hope this helps!

Simba likes to chew on stuff once in a while. I try to buy him bones but the next day they always disappear. Try to find something he can chew on so he doesn't get things he's not allowed too. BTW, i'll tell Simba to go visit Murphy, he always loves meeting new freinds.

very easy problem to solve  crate when you cannot watch him, plenty of chew toys, keep him on leash so you can give a correction when you catch him chewing inappropriatly, and last but not least make sure to keep stuff that you can picked up and out of reach. I have raised 4 guide dog puppies I know how annoying and frustrating chewing can be

Dogs chew because they are board. Dogs cannot cure boredom like we can by logging into a computer or plugging in a game system to a television. We have to consider them and how they must feel cooped up. So get your dog some chew toys that might help.

Tie him to a tree?

wow what an answer.

What do you do with your dog?
How long do you walk him?
Play with him?

A dog is not just something you can put off, if you do not feel like it.
They need your attention everyday.

Your dog is bored, you are lucky he does not chew himself raw.

spend some time with your friend.
If that is too much, find someone who will.
