Homemade Dog Taste Deterrent Spray! DIY

Does your pup constantly like to chew and gnaw on things he shouldn't be??? I know my Bailey does sometimes!!!! When she was a little puppy, she liked to chew on our shoes and anything that would help soothe her teeth! She has chewed on a few of our wooden outdoor furniture fixtures! When we first got Prince, the vet gave us some cream to rub on whatever we didn't want him to chew and it would keep him from chewing it., i think it was called Guk or something.

Heres what you need to make your own taste and chew deterrent spray:
1. spray bottle
2. apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
3. white vinegar

Here what you need to do:
1. Pour 2 cups of apple cider vinegar and 1 cup of white vinegar into the spray bottle.
2. Shake very well and spray on all items you don't want you dog chewing on anymore!

The vinegar or lemon juice provide a bitter and tart taste and most dogs tend to stay away from that as they don't like the taste! LOL Remember to spray your things weekly as the mixture that was previously spray will fade and your dog might start to chew on the stuff again. This mixture is safe and won't damage most surfaces or materials. Also remember to reinforce good behavior and also bad behavior as well! All dogs are not the same and some may not react to this spray and some may become tolerant to the taste as well. Just make sure you are aware of these situations so your things don't end up chewed again!

I have all these ingredients and a spray bottle and I cant wait to try this out with Bailey!
Thanks for reading guys!!! =]

I am a dog owner, and my dog liked to chew things especially socks and shoes. The only way I have been doing to avoid this is by locking my shoes and socks in a drawer. I use vinegar in various ways, however, I did not know about this kind of use. I am going to try this white vinegar with lemon juice as a taste deterrent spray for my dog. You say spray weekly. Are you say the taste will remain for a week?

This is also my problem since I got a dog. Everytime I noticed my dog to chew on my things, I changed places of it. But when the morning comes, my dog already found it or found another things. I am so stressed everytime I saw my dog chew on my things. So this homemade dog taste deterrent spray is the best solution to my problem. I am glad I saw this DIY thing.
