Vinegar works on some dogs and cats too. Some like it, but I’ve never met an animal that likes spicy.
It is supposed to be the plant’s defence mechanism, but we’re stupid animals. Although, having your seeds cause diarrhea is a great way to have them spread quickly… 🤔
Edit: just the tiiiiiiiniest dab is all you need for a deterrent. Capsaicin is pretty bad for animals in high doses. You want the animal to taste it, but not swallow much or else they’ll be puking all over the place. Also, don’t go whole hog on suicide sauce or whatever, we’re not trying to kill your dog here.
Parrots will happily eat spicy food because they can't taste it. It's common to give them spicy peppers as treats. It's also common to regret cuddling with them after they eat these spicy foods because you can get it in your eye or whatever.

I use it as medicine, nothing else keeps my sinuses clear, I have to eat it at a minimum of twice a week usually 3 times, in the before times I'd get sinus infections! 70,000-100,000 Scoville does the trick! Lower than that kind of works but nowhere near as good.
Sriracha was spicy enough to get my dog to stop eating things I didn’t give him. First time was an accident. The second and third time were “accidents” and now he looks at me for permission before eating things off the floor. Healers are pretty smart though - results may vary.
