I don't have carpet at home, but Nutmeg loves to destroy the bathroom rug. She also licks and tries to eat the carpet at work. She is just fascinated with the loose threads that she finds. She's almost 6 months. The bitter apple never worked for her. I just have to keep both eyes on her when she's around carpet. Good Luck!

Though I do suggest crating him during working hours I don't feel this is the avenue to take during your home hours. This will only deprive him more and in my eyes cruel. He can't be kenneled for that many hours and be expected to learn. You are just going to have to treat him as you did when he was a 12 week old pup and work w/him...exercise him..and monitor him so you may correct the problem. Just like parents who place their children in play pens...they have limited learning and need to…

i have floorboards right through but had carpet in the office. only when i would work and ignore george he would chew the carpet.. so i ripped it up and put down more boards. problem solved for me. george has never chewed anything else that he isnt supposed to.. so sorry i dont have an direct answer for you except make sure he has plenty to amuse him while alone and maybe crating or putting ina playpen till he grows beyond this stage all the best x

Oh lord, mind did this too. My cat got in on it and long story short, we got hardwood floors in the front room. She chews rugs too tho.<br />
I would pen him up until he's well out of the chewwing stage and then make sure he has chewies to eat in the mean time. Didi find bully sticks much more delicious than rugs and carpets.

Monitor him and offer plenty of other things he can chew on. I don't like offering toys that resemble stuffed animals or clothing..they don't know the difference between that and a real pair of socks or shirts. Keep him busy and wear him out alittle. A bored Corgi is a troubled Corgi. Go for walks...play ball outside...a Corgi full of energy is one to be mischevious and will find his own amusement which usually is one you won't agree with. You could steam clean your carpets but this normally…

So crazy! Toki is almost 6 months and she just started chewing up our carpet and tears out all the floor insulation underneath it. Then she starts tearing the carpet string out. We now have exposed nails sticking out of our floor. Where she chewed was right by the door and she would do it when she was alone. How we stopped it was keeping her in her pen when we were gone.

It just a chewing stage Sarah, don't worry about it. The only thing you can really do is just watch watch and watch him! Leave him on tile or in a playpen when you cant watch him. Chloe has a playpen which is very spacious and she chews her bone in it. Very convenient! You cant use bitter apple spray on the carpet. Too big of an area. Chloe chewed a big chunk out of our carpet when she was 11 month old. I think she did it because she was home alone a lot. Good luck!
