Chewing...

[Nancy Evers]

We have a 13 mos old Goldendoodle (Sophie) who is just wonderful... but she chews... Right now she is chewing a chair in my living room. Luckily it is not the nicest chair, but I am more worried about her injesting something than anything else. She has chewed most of our kitchen chairs down and we are now sitting dangerously on them... we have tried bitter apple... she loves it. I am at a loss... I know she is a baby still but with two little people babies running around with lots of little toys, I am worried she may chew toys too! (we keep her out of the playroom area...).

Any thoughts? Here is a pic of our beautiful Soph...

I will just add that at thirteen months this should be over and is a behavior issue, not a "my puppy is teething and has sore gums" issue. You have been given the identical advice i would give. Try many or all of these things and you will be surprised at a better outcome.
