Four Paws Bitter Lime Chew Deterrent Pump Spray

The Four Paws Bitter Lime Chew Deterrent Pump Spray tastes unpleasant, and that is the whole mechanism. Sprayed on the thing being chewed it makes the chewing less rewarding, which buys you time to deal with why the chewing is happening.

Key Features

• Bitter lime taste that most pets dislike
• Pump spray for controlled application
• Can be used on the coat or on household items
• Reapply regularly - the taste wears off

What It Does And Does Not Fix

• It makes one object less appealing. It does not stop a dog needing to chew
• Puppies chew because they are teething and because chewing is normal. Give them something they are allowed to destroy at the same time as making the furniture taste bad
• A dog licking or chewing one spot on itself over and over has a reason - a flea allergy, a sore joint underneath, an impacted gland, or anxiety. Bitter spray hides the behaviour and leaves the cause
• Chewing that only happens when you are out is usually separation-related and needs a behaviour plan, not a spray

Using It On A Pet

• Test on a small patch first. Some pets react to the spray itself
• Never spray onto a wound, a surgical site or broken skin. For a dog licking stitches, a proper collar or a recovery suit is the correct answer and your vet will supply one
• Keep it away from the eyes, nose and mouth

Good To Know

• Some pets simply do not mind the taste. There is no deterrent spray that works on every animal
