Go to the hardware store and buy some flexible metal conduit. They make different diameters, so you should be able to find something. Take the cord with you to make sure it will fit through the conduit.

What kind of spray did you try? If Bitter Apple didn't work, try making your own spray by mixing cayenne pepper and water.

The cable is called coaxial cable, "co-ax" for short, and it is available pretty much anywhere electronics are sold. Figure out how long of a piece you need because they sell it in several length amounts, from 1 foot to 100 feet. Make sure you get the length you need, you don't want a huge coil behind your TV!

I like Weed30's suggestion about the metal conduit, you can use a larger diameter to fit all your cords through.

I used cayenne pepper to discourage chewing too, it won't harm the animals and usually they don't even get close enough to taste it, the scent alone sends them running!

Good luck, tell us how it works out.

The spray I used was "Stop Chew" by Enviropet.

Next time I should remember to use Chinese Hot Oil. It's hotter than cayenne.

Thanks about the coaxial cable. It's good to know I can get it lots of places and it wasn't something special just for Dish Network.

Yes to the metal conduit! Thanks, Weed. I like that because it's not dependent on me remembering to re-apply something to the cord and hope it works.

This is one thing we used the 'penny can' for. The first time we saw our pup near electrical wires, we threw it at her. Never goes near cords anymore. The secret with the can is that you very seldom use it -- only in emergencies and don't let the dog see where the can came from.

Your dog could be exhibiting seperation anxiety or more likely boredom. Run your dog outside longer, take it to a dog park nearby lake or a fire road for daily long brisk walks. When alone offer your dog a Kong or other puzzle food toys to keep your puppy active and provide more chew toys so your dog has something it is suppose to chew and it can rid itself of a bit of frustration by chewing. Long daily walks are in order and basic training would be a good idea as well. Good luck

Bitter Apple is another spray that you could try. but don't get it on your hands and then wipe your lips -- BBAAADDD!

I second the flexible metal conduit. You often see that used for cords on the heated water bowls etc.

had a dog that loved to chew cords once. he chewed a live electrical cord to a fan once, never touched another cord again after that!

Davidandkaisie (good to see you in this part of the forum) I have often wondered what would happen if a dog chewed an electrical cord - was the dog hurt? I must say I worried about it too with our dog but figured it would be a one-time thing one way or the other, lol.

As for chewing I agree it can be boredom/separation anxiety etc, but if you don't hate the idea too much, giving a dog a bone indoors is probably the best solution apart from toys, imho, if a dog will choose to chew a cord over a bone, it's psychological issues.

We give ours bones that have not too much meat on them (although have nothing against that, used to give my old dog a lamb shank, that'd be his entertainment and meal for the day) - the ideal ones for her, since she has some sort of oesophagal issues, are raw sawn bones, the middle part of the shaft as it were. Not too much meat, plenty of marrow and lots of side action for keeping the teeth clean.

I like the idea of cable armour for protection!
