My friends lurcher has just started to lick his front legs to the point of starting to bald :(

He's about 18 months old (rescue) and they've had him for around a year. He's fed on JWB and nothing else has changed in his environment (washing powder etc)

Would it be safe to use bitter apple directly onto his legs and where is the best place to buy it from?

Also, would it be ok to use on her rats cage as her 14 yo daughter bought a 'ratproof' cage that the rat is slowly eating it's way through

Thanks.

LOL :D I have a rat, well two of them...Was going to rehome them but Iam dealing with the alergies so far I'm getting better :)
Anyhow my rat use to escape out of his cage till I put him into a smaller one..I tried bitter apple on his cage and it never worked at all....You could always try it, not sure if it will work.
Good luck :)

Where do you get it from?  The bitter apple spray that is....
