Chewing On Things - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ok at this point I don't know what to do. I'm so freakin frustrated! Jazzy has chewed up most of my daughters small plastic toys. I had to make sure none of her new Christmas toys are left laying on the floor beause she will chew on them. One day I went to put on my boot and she had chewed at the zipper so guess what I can't wear the boots. She chewed on my strap of my Coach bag! I'm overly ticked off right now and even had thoughts of giving her away because this chewing on everything has gotten out of control. Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do?

I know what you are going through and it is frustrating. Chachi has chewed up the feet of many barbies and has chewed My Daughters pocket polly stuff up. The only thing we have found that helps is to have alot of chewies for him to chew on. He got ahold of a barbie shoe last night and My Husband went and got him a bully stick. Then he left her stuff alone. I also dont let my Daughter keep her stuff on the floor when she is not playing with it. Good luck I know it is tough

Guess i'll be going to the store today to pick up some things for her to chew on but i doubt she'll stop. She's chewed on arms and legs of barbies, Bratz and Snap and Style Dolls. Sometimes she'll throw the stuff up becaue I can see it in the throw up. I guess the rest she's digesting and coming out in her poop.

I buy chewies in bulk so I always have them. The bully sticks I got off of ebay and I got 50 of them.

I bought Peeka a nyla bone and he hates it so maybe i'll try a bully stick he really just love chewing my son's stuff Peeka has a bunch of toys! These dogs are little stinkers lol

I can So relate to these stories....my Cooper (6mo) chews on EVERYTHING!!! The wall in his room (which has hubby in an uproar), hands, feet, toys, and anything else he can wrap his teeth around. I am attributing it to teething and praying it stops in a month or two but who knows...it is definately causing friction at times at home but what can we do...he is still a pup. At least we can share our frustrations here with one another.

Don't feel bad my Tia whi is 1 1/2 years old still chews holes right through the drywall!!!! All we do is patch. We tried the apple bitter spray & deodorant, both work but she just goes to another area! She's lucky she's too cute!!

Wow! I'm sorry you all are having problems like this. I heard some horror stories before I got Mojo about Yorkies being chewers.......BUT, thank goodness, Mojo isn't one of them! He has never chewed on anything - he wants the soft plush toys and I think he is the only Yorkie out there that does not like bully sticks! Ha! Good luck! I know there are tons of chew toys and sprays and such out there.......you might have to go through them all to find something that works, but it will be better than going through Coach bags! HA!
