    Dog chewing leather furniture, is there a product to apply on furniture?
    My 12 week lab puppy loves to chew on our leather furnitre. We have many toys and try to detur him from biting with introducing a toy when he bites the leather furniture and also tried frozen wash cloths. We use a firm NO! But almost seems to get more playful and thinks it's a game. Can I use bitter apple on my leather furniture? I'm afraid it might stain. Is there any other product I can use? HELP!

    I found this bitter spray product but it says to test on an inconspicuous area first...
    Dog Behavior Training: Drs. Foster and Smith Chew Stop®

    I'll keep searching!
    I have a leather couch too so it would be handy to know...

    Be careful handling stuff sprayed with FOOEY! I use it to stop one of my cats from chewing wires, and it works pretty good. The only problem is even after a month or so, if you handle anything sprayed with it, you can taste it on food you eat by hand. And it does taste nasty! Good luck!

    Thanks for the tip!
    I haven't used it personally but it was the only one I could find that specifically said safe for leather.
