Premium UK-sourced bitter ingredient A signal through taste,
A signal through taste,
rather than a masking scent.
BitterCare adds bitter taste to household surfaces to help manage repeated mouthing.
What does the bitter taste do?
It allows a bitter-taste response when the dog naturally contacts the treated surface. Placement and close adhesion matter.
Will every dog respond the same way?
Taste sensitivity and habits differ. Stop use if the dog tears the sticker, and consider alternative chewing and environmental management.
Check both the source and the instructions.
“UK-sourced” refers to the origin of the bitter ingredient, not the manufacturing location of the finished product. It is not edible. Do not offer it to taste or apply to the body.

Can I apply it to the body or fur?
No. Do not use on skin, fur or paw pads. This product is for household surfaces only.
Can I let my dog taste it directly?
Do not offer it directly to taste. Apply it to frequently chewed surfaces so contact occurs naturally.
Can I use it on delicate furniture?
Adhesive marks or surface changes are possible depending on the material. Test a small area first.
What if the effect gets weaker?
Check the contact point and adhesion. Replace the sticker if surface dirt or repeated use makes replacement necessary.
