Dear Dog People Readers
I hope you all can help me out here. I bought a small terrier mix dog at the pound. She looks like a part Chihuahua/Dachund with some terrier from the markings under her short white coat on her chest. She weighs 10 pounds and is about 3 or 4 years old according to the vet. Yes she is spayed. I got her about 3 weeks ago or so. I had bought her a bone shaped stuffed toy with a squeaker inside. She also has one other toy (rubber) she plays with.
Whoever dumped her at the pound must not have had the money to have her spayed , I had her spayed.
Up until this last week she was the BEST well behaved dog I had ever seen. She was paper trained , let you know when she wanted to eat or go outside or play , no chewing or anything.
Now here's a real problem and hopefully somebody can help me. Since she has completely chewed that stuffed toy I mentioned above she has been on a chewing spree ever since.
After being such a good girl , she has ripped her new dog bed , chewed a hole in the couch cushion and the small rug by the door.
I feel like I have taught her to go back to her bad habit if that's what she has done before.
I don't mind keeping her in her dog crate. I had prefer she'd have the run of the house whether I'm here or not.
Yes , I'm home most of the time and I don't ever see her chewing to stop her.
The pet store recommended I buy a bottle of boundry. The only draw back is I don't want her staying off the furniture I just want to stop her chewing.
I hope some or all of you can help me out on this.
