Today, I bought some bitter-apple spray to stop my puppy chewing on everything. Later, I found out how effective it was, when I tried to eat a sandwich, and gagged at the horrifying taste on my hands. My dog seems unaffected, and continues to chew the table legs. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up late and grabbed what I thought was a granola bar on my way out. It wasn’t until I was halfway through eating it that I realized it was a dog treat. I had the godawful taste in my mouth all throughout the day, despite several cans of Pepsi and Mountain Dew. FML
Today, I finally realized why my 9-week-old puppy was going to the bathroom so much. I went to pick up the food bag and realized she had chewed a hole in the bottom, and eaten half of the bag in the last 4 days. Goodbye 30 pounds of dog food, and 100$ for a vet visit. FML
Today, on the kitchen counter, there was a plate that had snacks on it. I decided to take a bite. I spat it out. Later on, my mother told me it was dog food. FML
Today, my dog head-butted me in the mouth so hard that my lip split open. Twenty minutes later, I unthinkingly sprayed perfume directly into the wound. FML
Today, I discovered that the delicious beef jerky strips I’ve been eating all week are actually the dog’s teeth cleaning chews. FML
Today, I realized that my dog is an evil genius. As I sat down to have a snack, he barked as if he saw someone outside. I went to check it out, but nobody was there. When I returned, I found my dog on the table finishing off my bacon sandwich. FML
Today, I took my puppy outside to play. At one point, she stopped chewing on her toy and ran over to give me a big kiss all over my face and mouth. A few minutes later I realized that her chew toy was actually the dried up carcass of a toad. FML
Today, my dog became scared of his own food bowl. He now barks for ages every time he sees it. FML
Today, my dog thought it would be a good idea to use my phone as a chew toy. FML
Today, I was eating chocolate chip cookies around the house and saw a chocolate chip on the floor. Not wanting my dog to eat it, given that chocolate is poisonous for dogs, I swiped it up with my finger and put it to my mouth. It was then that I realized it was a stub of my dog's poop. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

OP's name fits the situation.

That's probably why they chose it...

and here I thought having a sandwich after any task was great...

That would be why we wash our hands before we eat. As for your dog, it's time to get him a pen

Exactly, wash your hands! You would have thought it was pounded into every person's brain after going through elementary school

Your puppy is probably teething. Lots and lots of chew toys until your puppy is trained better.(:

Puppies can be difficult. Don't worry, hopefully he will grow out of it, and you can have spray free sandwiches again :) Happy training, OP!

Puppies are hard to train. Keep trying and do more research on your dog breed.

Honestly puppies aren't hard to train. You just need to be consistent and patient and they'll be perfectly trained. I've used the same techniques on quite a few dog breeds and they work out fine.

Agreed

Puppies are hard to train if you don't know anything about dogs. My puppy is in the middle of the tooth-thingy, and as soon as he tries to chew on something he can't chew on, I tell him to stop. After a couple of times, he knows it's forbidden and believe it or not - none of or furniture, mats or anything has been damaged. Then again, he's also a smart dog.

Some dogs are hard to train. I've had a few that are hard to train so I had to do more research. Some breeds are harder to train than others because some are more stubborn than others.

Look up alternatives or enjoy the uber cuteness of your puppy chewing on things!

Tobasco sauce is what I used with my puppy! Dilute it with water and spray it on floor level stuff. That way it's not too hot and it won't stain! Good luck! :)

almost as bad as cooking with spices like cayenne pepper and then itching your nose and then accidentally inhale the residue.

I'm assuming it is actually horrible but 'bitter apple spray' sounds quite nice. Like a sour apple sweet. : P

You can make that mistake if you want to.
