So, your in the shower washing the bitter apple off your arms while realizing what a stupid idea that was. Your nervous, chewer has eaten the leash and destroyed 1/2 the house.
Now you figure out that tying him to the door was pretty dumb too, is it time to drive him nuts with the laser? A little alpha-messin with him?

I am not going back to her site, but did it REALLY advise giving a chewing dog, which is tethered with 4' of a leash - 2' of LEASH as a chew toy??? Did she REALLY advise this???
Holy cow. I don't know what to say except... Yeah, Will, you have definitely met your match here... Whoo. Out of no where, a trainer who can put you in your place.
I want to revise what I said earlier about my experience level not being adequate to critique that of a "professional" trainer... Jeannie, even I could help you big time. That is pretty sad for a woman who is making her living advising innocent people on how to raise and train their dog. Any other skills you can fall back on by any chance?
Holy cow.
Full disclosure... I was just notified via a PM that the comment about tethering with a leash and giving a section of leash as a chew toy was said in jest and not actually found on Jeannie's website. My apologies.
Nah, I think Ana was just puttin two and two together - ie, if you have a chewer, that chewer is very likely going to chew up whatever you use to tie them up with...
But it realy does recommend spraying yourself with bitter apple to keep your dog from biting you. Maybe all you Maligator folks should give this a try and report back to us how it works somehow I'm guessing that those dogs just might enjoy the extra flavor...

This is verbatim from the site. Your just missing the clever 2 foot of punchline.
