My dog has destroyed almost 00 in earbuds! What can I do?
My dog keeps on finding, and obliterating headphones by chewing them up to a non-functional state. I have calculated this to cost me more than 00 in earbuds.

How can I fix this? In other words, where can I find dog-proof earbuds, or make my dog not want to chew them? As a side note, please consider that I don't want hot sauce in my ears.

Active training. Get a case of cheap earbuds and expose the dog to them under supervision, actively teaching *No! Not yours, do not touch!"

Works for me with cats.

Note: I don't think you told us the dog's age. Puppies chew, period; it's the human's responsibility to direct that to appropriate chew toys.

Hide them! Take them somewhere high, on a bookshelf for example, where the dog cannot reach them.

Puppies like to chew on things, especially rubber things like earbuds, wires, AC power cords, irrigation hosing, water hose tubing, shoes, etc.

Your best defense is honestly just putting them up and out of reach. Anything it can reach is fair play.

There is a bitter apple spray that you can use, but it doesn't work 100% of the time and honestly it gives you the false impression you can leave your things laying around and your puppy won't bother them.
