Here's waht you could do:

Put something hot, like pepper, on the slippers that you DON'T wear. After a few times, the dog should get the idea that eating slippers is not very tasty Smile

if you don't want to do something as drastic as slippers, then use a food they don't like, but make sure it's safe! And in the meeantime, you can keep the slippers you wear on a high shelf when you're not wearign them, so that your dog can't get to them. Hope that helps! And if you ever catch them in the act of eating your slippers, jsut say firmly NO, but whatever you do, DON'T hit them!
~Many Good Dog Years!~
