THIS TOTALLY WORKS!!!
This product works amazingly!! New puppy chews on everything!! Carefully spraying (to avoid his eyes) on unacceptable or unsafe chew spots works like magic! He does not like it and doesn’t return to that spot. Can’t tell how long it lasts but definitely hours. Just re-spray as needed. Will definitely buy again if needed.

Works well - needed it for my ferret to stop chewing hammock straps
Works well! I needed it for my ferret to stop chewing hammock straps in their cage. My new rescue always went crazy for anything attached to the top of the cage. Soaked some of this into the straps when I added the new hammock and she hasn't attempted to chew them since. I would be mindful when spraying as it can get around the surface you are attempting. It also has an alcohol smell to it which I'm sure aids in having the pets avoid the given area. CONSULT A VETERINARIAN BEFORE SPRAYING DIRECTLY ON YOUR PETS! Also check the material and ingredients of this product before spraying on furniture etc before it gets ruined.

Works well
This works really well for our dog, and is the only product that works for him. When we spray stuff with this, he leaves it alone. It doesn’t last forever - you have to respray - but you may find that, like for us, you don’t end up needing to. The dog starts avoiding whatever was sprayed, even if the product has worn off. Definitely recommend if your dog likes chewing and stealing things he shouldn’t.I will say, you won’t want to spray clothes or anything you’re wearing because it does have a little alcohol smell. The more you spray, the more it will smell. If you just spray a little, it’s not too bad, and it eventually wears off to the human nose. Maybe keep it to decorative things.

Effective product to aid with training!
It works, but this is a training tool not a one and done thing. It does not smell bad and does not discolor furniture. I spray it on my cloth couch, wood furniture, and any/everything else I want my two anamaniacs to stop chewing on! They definitely stop chewing on it immediately, they seriously dislike the taste, but as soon as that wears off they will be back. It has to go hand in hand with proper training of your furry friend. There are no “magic tricks” to stop bad behavior. I have used this same product to train 5 dogs now and 4 cats to stop chewing and/or climbing on things I wanted them to stay off of or leave alone. But it takes consistency.

Strong Smell. Works, But Have To Respray Often
It works, but loses its effectiveness after a couple of days.Very strong alcohol smell, which disipates after a few minutes just like with rubbing alcohol.The spray bottle was not easy to use without it leaking with every spray. Maybe I received a defective sprayer bottle? For this reason I recommend wearing gloves!The first time I used Grannick's Bitter Apple was over 20 yrs ago and it worked like a charm - just sprayed everything once and done. For that reason, it would have received 5 stars, but unfortunately I can't give it a true 5 stars today.Although it worked and my puppy didn't like the taste of it, after just a couple of days, I found myself having to respray everything again. Not sure why it's losing it's effectiveness so quickly. But I did notice today's product has a very strong alcohol smell, whereas the older product only had a faint apple smell.I hope the manufacturer, or whomever, hasn't cut all the bittering ingredients and factors that once made this product very effective and would last, just to add or substitute it with more alcohol (hence the strong alcohol smell). I may try to purchase this elsewhere to see if there's a difference and will update. Because at this rate and less quality, this product is going to cost me more than the items I'm trying to protect!I would also like to add that my puppy 20+ years ago was a Cocker Spaniel. My new puppy is a German Shepherd/Husky mix whom I recently discovered likes the taste of sour stuff, hence why a similar "super sour" product didn't work. Maybe different breeds have different tastes buds? Idk, but thought maybe this background info may be of some help to others.

BEST STUFF EVER!!!!
My freaking puppy was chewing on everything!!!! My friend recommended this stuff and I’ve never looked back. This is a game changer. I kinda want to spray it on the cats so she’ll quit going after them but I’m sure that’s not recommended lol I will definitely be buying the refill. Love it!!!!

Training Tool
This is a great deterrent for puppy chewing. All.of our puppies learned fast with this products. We train first by offering an appropriate chew toy as a replacement item. But if that doesn't work we squirt a little bit on the no chew item like kitchen cabinets, chair legs. etc.
P**.
It works!
This product is very effective to keep my dogs from chewing or biting. My only complaint is that it is should be available in smaller sizes...mainly because once you have to use it, they are simply only afraid of the bottle. I have shared mine with 3 other friends because I really just needed a few squirts and they now fear just the bottle.
