7 month old puppy. She is very chewy and virtually nothing in our house has escaped unscathed. If I catch her doing it, it’s a firm “no” and give her a bone or her toy. It stops on that occasion but doesn’t really work long term.
Today she tipped over a large planter and scooped out the contents. The mess was indescribable. I normally monitor her better but my DS is ill so she went out into garden unsupervised.
She knew she was being naughty, but did it anyway. I gave her the “no”, burst into tears and took her inside. Cleaned it up as best I could. When my back was turned putting ruined plants in brown bin, DS let her out and she did it again.
I’m not getting through to her. How would you have handled it?
