She's a one year old labradoodle.

Mine went through a stage where he would chew the cable wires off the house and satellite. Only thing I put on it that he wouldn't mess with was axle grease.

He would even play with old jugs of old oil. True story.

Pepper spray. When my dog would dog holes I'd put cayenne powder in it. She stopped digging pretty quick when she stuck her about in a few times.

You could spray white vinegar on some things.

BUT, the best thing to do is go buy some hollow bones at your local pet store. Take the bones and fill the middle of them with peanut butter, all of the middle. Then, throw the bones in the freezer overnight. The next day when you leave, throw the bone on the floor. They will be at it ALL.DAY.

Also, take a deer antler and saw it in half down the middle. She will chew on it for a very long time.

This didn't work for my dog. We put it on her bandages after she had her dews removed.

Guess every dog is different.

My dog goes through these damn things way too quickly. One thing I found that lasts her a while is these solid, hard rubber bones. They usually last a couple of months.

My Yorkie chews on every wire he can get to. I've wondered if they actually spend time chewing antlers - I always see them at the pet store and they are fairly expensive, but I can't find any kind of chew he'll spend any time on. Will have to try them.

I had a lab that chewed everything. Had to replace the wires from ac unit to house twice. All plants, hose pipes everything. He had plenty of chew toys and I tried all the sprays and cayenne pepper and nothing worked. Got a shock collar and would watch out the window and that helped but I never left the collar on when I wasn't there and he figured out when the collar was on and off. I would run with him and take him to a pond and exercise did very little. He eventually just grew out of it at around 5 years. It sucked!

Call the cops and remove the collar.

Exercise, exercise and more exercise, along with socialize.

Also, get an e-collar.
