Guest guest Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Our Roxie is still a pup, and has outgrown most of it, but she will chew something when she gets bored. She was actually in her crate and the cord had dropped down into it from the kitchen counter and she killed it then. (She's a black lab/Greyhound mix) ~Tee - Donnalilacflower Wednesday, January 28, 2009 8:28 PM Chewing Dogs OT I had a dog like that. She chewed the telephone cord, window screens, ate my cacti if you can believe it, moved the 6 foot Christmas tree across the room since it was in her favorite sunny spot, ate her dog bed and it looks like toothpicks when she was done and chewed up the inside roof of my car grrrrrrrrrrrr what a dog she was.

I hear you on the dog chewing your cord I have a cat who is an occasional cord-chewer, and a parrot who has ruined a curling iron and two stereo cords (I finally got smart and supervise her better!)

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Well, see, it wasn't really Roxie's fault then! Love that name! My mom has two year-old pups, rat terrier mixes, Roxy and Tilly. My 9-lb chihuahua mix, Jack, ate a paperback library book as a puppy (when he weighed maybe 3 pounds!) I was horrified, I was brought up to believe that books are sacrosanct (especially library books!) I was so ashamed of myself as I went into the library to pay for it... Audrey S.
