When kept in her crate for over an hour or so, she will chew the little tabs off of her blanket. She doesn’t eat them (like Cooper would) but just chews them off. Once when we left her in the crate with her collar on, she got it off and chewed it in two. Again, didn’t eat – just chewed.

This is why I think the problem is “boredom chewing.” She is good at entertaining herself and doesn’t need constant entertainment like Cooper does. (Funny how he doesn’t chew on stuff.) Anyway, I think Stella just wants something to do. Since most of the chewing seems to be in the early morning hours (chewing on our bed) we will try having some toys for her in the bedroom. We have also sprayed Bitter Apple on the places where she has chewed on the furniture.

You can find Grannick Bitter Apple Original Spray for Dogs
on Amazon for pretty cheap. We use it and it works great.
