shoemonster Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Lately, the last week or so, Eddie has been chewing in the door frames and my desk etc I have no idea why he is doing this, it's not something he has ever done before One of the spot he was doing it is in the laundry and has been repaired with putty, after one of them (I assumed Molly at the time) chewed it already So I thought well maybe its the putty, but then he just walked up to me at the computer desk leant on me and started gnawing on the desk I have bitter spray so I might spray the frames with that In the mean time anyone got any theories on why? Other than that he is a stafford of course He has never really been a chewer like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoBella Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 He might be teething. I can't remember when that starts. A few days ago Bruno was chewing on my antique coffee table I pulled it out of reach and replaced it with a toy. I don't leave him anywhere unsupervised. Hope some of your furniture survives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoemonster Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 Don't think its teething as he's almost a year old now, but its a good idea though Maybe its an attention thing? He is a massive sooky lala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoBella Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I have gutters in my laundry wall from Bella running her nails down the wall trying to wake me up Can't remember when she did that. I think staffy's are bigger chewers than GSPs. You might have to buy more of the big chews If you have a crate you could put him in there everytime he chews and see if that helps. Where are the staffy experts when you need them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoemonster Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 (edited) Yeah - I'm silly that I didn't think about that when I think its the reason for my other thread in training about Eddie not sleeping through the night too! *slaps self in the head!!!* BP, glad you got a naughty one too My friends were always annoyed with us when we got Eddie cos he has been a pretty good pup really, but now we have Molly too they are double trouble, I think all those friends wished our devil girl onto us!!!

Repeat after me - "My dogs are misbehaving cause they're sick. They have kennel cough!". Got it now My two are both naughty. Bella was nearly calm and then I got Bruno. Now they're both naughty I have renamed Bruno "Cyclone Bruno" after he broke into the house last week while I was away for the day. I'm still finding shoes in strange places, my rubbish was chewed and spread over the house and my bedroom curtain has been shredded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoemonster Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 @ cyclone Bruno!!! We call Molly Destructo Dog or Molly Maniac!!! She is the same, and funny enough has also broken into the house a few times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyvernblade Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 My Dobe pup has taken to chewing the coffee table corners. We also have a wood fire at home and if we leave wood out to go in the fire, he chews bits off them and spreads them everywhere! I actually spread mustard all over the corners of the coffee table tonight and so far it has worked a treat Now he's just chewing our clothes, my shoes, the cat's dishes, the cushions, his bed, the laundry basket, clothes pegs, table legs and people! Phew! One down, six hundred to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TangerineDream Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 (edited) 'El Destructo' here is chewing a pallet, firewood, destroyed a tiretoy in 10 minutes (the indestructable ones) and started on the handbrake in the car......... Obviously they can grow into it....hopefully they grow out of it.... [schpelling] Edited June 29, 2006 by TangerineDream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
