Your dog is likely chewing your carpet and rugs because he's a puppy, he's bored, or he has separation anxiety, which can lead to chronic destructive chewing. Chewing bones is a natural behavior for dogs; providing your dog with a variety of safe chew toys will help save your carpet. When purchasing chew toys for dogs, pay attention to quality. Look for toys that can withstand heavy-duty chewing and are large enough to prevent swallowing.
Get help if your dog continues to chew your carpet after you've tried exercise, training, chew toys and play. Professional dog trainers and behaviorists can evaluate your dog and find solutions to destructive chewing.
An ounce of prevention may save your carpet. Use baby gates, dog gates or a dog crate to keep your dog away from carpet. Dogs should not be crated for more than six consecutive hours.
Correct your dog with positive reinforcement. Hitting or yelling at your dog does not help him learn and could cause his chewing to increase due to stress.
Don't give your dog scraps of carpet or toys that resemble carpet to chew; he can't tell the difference between your prized Berber and a carpet-like chew toy.
Hope this helps!
