Bosun11 537 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'd agree with Beast Ray, dog with his brain and the best possible upbringing and start has a reason to start chewing, maybe its change maybe lack of stimulus when not out... Whatever it may be have a good long think and try to suss it out. Quote Link to post
Neal 1,873 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I really feel for you Ray...I'm having a similar situation with my current lump of a kelpie pup...the run looks like I've rehomed a coypu! He also tips over every water container I put in (I gave up on the big bucket when he chewed it up). But there's always light at the end of the tunnel. I've had the same from previous dogs (kelpies and otherwise) and they all stopped in the end. A friend of mine with a rotty recommended deer antler chews. I was a bit sceptical at first but he loves them...and it's helping with his retrieving too as he loves bringing them to me so I can hold them while he chews them. He even taps me with his paw to get my attention if I've not realised he's there. Think happy thoughts. 1 Quote Link to post

Phil Lloyd 10,738 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Buck chewing it up, moved to new place used wood shed , what was used to store wood for wood burner for my bungalow .A lot of hard work went it to it , 3 compartments , insulated it coverd with ply where dogs sleep and wooden floor so nice and warm inside, and put new floor down (slabs) trigger2 jon done for me , and very good job he did , brought my panels with me from other kennel .So with hours worked and money , it good set up I think .I take the dogs twice a day a lot of free running 3 hours a day, there worked fair amount I out to night with both of them, with trigger2 jon , and they get beef neck bones 2 days a week. Buck tried scratch at the ply to get his teeth in last night, he chewed the door frames , put new door frames in . I was so angry last night with him, I could just about walk him , with out killing the twat he came very close to getting hurt badly . ive muzzled him now took advice of my wife, and he will stay like this now. my old kennel+run was breeze+block , and compo base, maybe should have had one built , but thought be nice and warmer in the the shed, you leave and learn. You and me,.. are in the same boat.... My young, home bred cur ,..really is a total ball -breaker.... Got in last night,..went outside and noticed that she had chewed through the TV ariel cable Thank feck the guy next door is a sparky !! Edited November 17, 2014 by Phil Lloyd 1 Quote Link to post

I find one of these inside a car tyre normally workshttp://i01.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/834/854/327/327854834_854.jpg Might have to trim handles off to stop dog getting hold. 1 Quote Link to post
