Hello, everyone,

I'm new to the forum. I have two Dobe's, a 6 y/0 male (TJ) and a 6 month old (Tobi.) I had my first Dobe for 10 years (Pony).

TJ was a pretty harmless pup...chewed a couple of pillows, a few newspapers, etc...

Tobi is a real hellion. To date:
-1 $350 cell phone
-several hardcover books (approx $100)
-pillows, comforters, blankets ($200)
-daughter's MP3 player ($80)...constant bitching from daughter (who knows?)
-garden hose ($30)
-remote control for TV (free replacement from cable company)
-1 drumstick caught from Kiss drummer in early 80's (unknown)


At any rate, I guess you could say she's pretty much paid for herself.

Ah, who cares? All that stuff can be replaced. Daily entertainment from having two Dobermans?

Priceless.

I love my dogs.

Sincerely,
JTP

heheh, she got you good! As I've heard before as a repercussion for her actions, you can take a newspaper, roll it up real tight, then beat yourself over the head with it, for letting her have access to the stuff she ate Might as well beat us all over the head while you are at it too!

I am convinced that Dobes are part goat - and that what they are attracted to destroy is directly proportional to its value. Old tennis shoes? Zero interest. Brand new suede boots? Party time!!!

Good one, Lexus, Gunner is still at it especially when i'm not looking. He thinks I have to pay attention all the time.

1 bottle of hydrogen peroxide $. 99

hey did that make your dogs throw up? cause when I was dog sitting some dogs...they got into some chocolate brownie mix...and the vet connected me to the toxic person...and they said to give each dog a certain amount of hydrogen peroxide...I think a tablespoon for the lab...and I put them outside and sure enough UP and OUT it goes! lol. I think I told the story before...it was also winter...and so the thrown up chocolate froze and I had to make sure they didnt go back out there and eat it when outside to go potty lol!

Man, I have been lucky! Maggie is past the teething stage, and we haven't had a caualty to date (knock on wood).

Having a 3 year old daughter and a 10 month son, I thought we would have problems with her chewing up the kids toys. WRONG! More like trying to keep a crawling baby from chewing on the dog toys! It's always nice to see your little son chewing on a gummy, slobbery soft rawhide.:vomit-smi

If her rope or fluffy toy gets pile in with the kids toys, she retrieves it from the pile like, "no way man - that's mine!" and leaves the kids toys alone.
