We have a white German Shepard Dog called Silver. He will be two years old in May. Silver steals the license plates of our and our visitors cars. It is getting so bad that I have place outdoor chairs in front of the cars, against the license plates so that he cannot steal it.
We have tried everything to let him stop stealing the plates, hot sauce, lemon juice, pest away and ever thorn branches. He carefully takes the branch in his mouth between his lips and just pulls it away. Silver doesn't eat or chew the plates, he just takes them off.
At first I thought he might be bored, but he has lots of toys and another dog to run and play with. They have enough space to run and play as well. It is not a lack of attention either, we make sure to spend as much time as possible with our pets. And Silver and my son is inseparable. If you are looking for one of them you just find the other and they both will be there.
Can you help me with other possible solutions I can try to stop the thieve?
