Dog addicted to butter
23 Answers
One of my dogs has become addicted to butter and will go to any lengths to get it. I plan to spike a pack (that's generally what she eats..full packs) with something to put her off. Putting the butter away is not an option wen in other people houses and she has learn't to cease every opportunity.
Any suggestions for a safe substance to spike the butter with?

I'm not talking about leaving the dog in the kitchen for 2 hours with a pack of butter. I'm talking about working outside with the dog, she disappears for 1 minute and reappears licking her lips. The other dogs (3 of them) haven't gone anywhere. I'm also talking about cooking on the stove and just behind my back she counter surfs the butter away. Jules please don't reply with anymore bone comments!!!
We have a whippet cross that does this Not with butter but catfood on the worktop, It is a very hard thing to break as once they know they can do it at any opportunity they will, Our charlie very rarely does it now and did not do it with me down stairs but if i was to go upstairs within me reaching the landing she has had it allready, One good tip i was told was the old fashioned method was to place some books that were half on and half off the worktop and place something that makes alot of clatter on the book so that when they jump up they put there paws on top of the books and brings the items down on them ( I do not mean bricks or heavy items) just something that startles them until they get the message, good luck.
i remember hearing someone who put double sided sticky tape on the worktops and the dog didnt like the feeling on its paws!??not very good to b giving advice to you yet..only just got a dog, and a total slating on here too!!! but best of luck anyhow bigeye!! i think the pepper sounded good....maby would run through her though.....xx
