How do I stop my dog from eating everything in the house?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

What should I do? If your dog is bored, try to find more time in your day to spend with them, and include fun, interactive toys. Always remove any dangerous objects from reach, in case they don't respond to training. Do not give your dog attention if they're behaving badly as it can reinforce the behavior.


Do dogs grow out of eating everything?

Most puppies will outgrow their desire to eat everything. For others, the behavior will lessen but perhaps not go away entirely. However, if we make too big a deal out of it, then it can become a more obsessive behavior that turns into a more serious problem.

How do I keep my dog from scavenging in my house?

Carry smelly treats with you to distract them from scavenging. Take the dog's favourite toy along for the walk and make it a game of fetch or tug-of-war. Teach your dog to stay by your side while out on walks and pay attention to you. Teach your dog solid 'leave it' and 'drop it' commands.
