My dog Twinkie did the same exact thing.<br />
<br />
The solution I came up with was pretty simple, I rubbed some cayenne pepper on the corners he was chewing on and needless to say one taste and he hasn't chewed the walls since.<br />
<br />
Walking should also help, originally I would take Twinkie on one hour long walk a day but I split it up to two 30 minute walks, one in the morning and one after he eats dinner.<br />
<br />
Before I did this I tried making sure there were ample bones and kongs filled with peanut butter but…

I think the main thing that leads to chewing is boredom, and when Corgi's don't have their people to follow around they get bored! Trying any of the suggestions in this thread will surely yield good results! Good Luck!

Make sure you are able to supervise your dog with these toys. The twist and treat I give to Lance but as soon as his food is out, I make sure to trade him for a piece of his dog food. He would probably chew the toy up otherwise. The same with the Kibble Nibble, Lance wants to chew on the whole ball once the treats are all out, so I have to make sure he trades that one in to so he doesnt break<br />
<br />
Lance is a heavy duty chewer, the rubber kongs have held up the best over time, I dont have to worry…

Lance is a heavy duty chewer, the rubber kongs have held up the best over time, I dont have to worry about putting those up out of his reach when hes done with those, but every dog is different. I am so thankful there is a a toy out there I dont have to worry about him destroying lol As I type he just picked up his Waggle that was laying around, another safe toy for him to leave for him. :) This is what Becky is referri…tag:mycorgi.com,2010-07-18:1150197:Comment:7076422010-07-18T01:43:52.428ZNatalie, Lance &Tuckerhttp://mycorgi.com/profile/Lance2
This is what Becky is referring to, I believe. I thought I saw one of these bottles with a rubber rope instead of the rope. I am hesitant to get the one with the rope because Im afraid Lance will chew and eat the rope. I cannot find the one with the rubber rope...but Im pretty sure Ive seen it before. :(<br />

While I'm a firm believer the only thing better than a corgi is two corgis, that won't stop any mischief. A 2nd corgi is merely a partner in crime. :-) My two corgis, ages 3 & 6 months, get in plenty of trouble together. My dynamic duo chewed the wall through the sheet rock down to the wood behind it while locked in the kitchen. They had each other, food, water, & toys. Our pups are never left alone for more than a couple hours a few times a week & have ample amounts of exercise.…
