Some dogs don't like it. That's why I suggested it. It's worth a try for someone who hasn't found any other alternatives. I have had dogs that it has worked for to deter them from chewing. Stefanie

Most dogs don't like the taste and will stop biting or chewing. You can get the stuff at Petco or Petsmart. You can still firmly tell her "no" when she bites but I would try the bitter apple and see if that works. Good luck!

Keeping in mind i like the fact she is so full of life and enjoys everything and i dont want that to change. She does know what no means and she stays when i go outside. Working on come. The delema i have is that she uses me for a chew toy and sometimes it takes a multitude of nos to get her to stop. I know people on this group has said to hold them down until they calm down. my husband does this and it works but the look on her face kills me. she is quiet for a long time after. I am concerned that it will change her. I dont want a trained dog like on the dog whisperer. they only move when he lets them. i like an independent dog. is this going to hurt her. I also want a good dog. Sorry this is so long. Arlene
