Been there
I cried

 

[Barton Bounty]

Oh yeah.. been there too same dog.. a staffy chewed through the kitchen units, chewed through a hole to the bathroom and chewed up 24 toilet rolls opened the door and it was like a snowglobe

 

[Titchy Reindeer]

I'm going to jinx myself and say thankfully, between the two I've lost an extension cable (luckily not plugged in), a door stop, 2 pairs of cheap shoes, a dog cushion, the corners of some of the sofa cushions and of the table cloth, a glass bowl and the handle on the stove. I've got 2nd hand sofas just in case and I'm paranoid about the car, so they don't get in if not in a crate.
Liberty lost loose in the house privileges after the stove handle, and just this morning started building them up again.

When I had a puppy he chewed through my hairdryer flex and the spine of a book in the bookcase. Lurcher couldn't be trusted with food on the worktop.

Worse was when I first got the big girl. OH came in from the garden and told me the disposable gloves he'd left on the table outside were missing. There was only one place they could be. I rang the vet who said watch and wait and sure enough they appeared one at a time a few days later. An anxious few days I can tell you.

The leather upholstered seat of a lovely shiny new MGB sports car. (labrador) A gorgeous big puffy sofa in rented accommodation that we had to replace, obviously. (A different labrador) A big nearly new double mattress, various bits of bedding and one pillow. (A collie - phantom pregnancy apparently) The entire back of a sofa that we didn't notice for about six months as I am a lazy trollop and didn't often pull the sofa out to hoover. (A JRT and probably his little patterdale cross buddy helped him) Utility room door one very big gaping hole (a staffie x who was very cross indeed)

I still can't even bring myself to think too much on the saddle in the tack room, where dog was left safely locked in while I went for a ride. ( A mongrel type scruffy hairy thing but very, very sweet) It wasn't my saddle. All the small stuff to numerous to mention. But I would like to step up and say, every single one was probably our error, not the dogs!

Mine have luckily never had anything hugely expensive.

A pair of glasses which were about £40.

There was one occasion where they opened up a draw in the bedroom and proceeded to spread tampons and sanitary towels throughout the house. Annoyingly, they actually opened the tampons and removed all the applicators so they couldn't be salvaged.

Your dogs have expensive taste, Mrs J.

We had a rescue Weimaraner with separation anxiety who was a nightmare! Chewed through a kitchen door even though he had another dog for company. Destroyed the seat of a van too whilst husband was shoeing a horse (had another dog for company then as well). Used to get occasional tummy upsets too and husband walked into the kitchen one early morning without switching the light on to feel something warm and wet squishing between his toes!

 

[ihatework]

What shoe mum? Not me

 

[Mrs. Jingle]

Your dogs have expensive taste, Mrs J.

Yes but if you divide it by the nearly 60 years we have been married, and the many dogs we have been lucky enough to own.........well worth every penny.

 

[ArklePig]

Mine destroyed a full sofa seat when she was new. it wasn't a separation thing, it was a general anxiety thing and I watched it happen, powerless to stop her. the inner foam was like crack to her. Then she peed on it. She has never done anything like it since and no longer displays any anxiety symptoms, Thank christ.

When my female was a pup she used to run into the living room, climb onto the Lounge Pug (giant beanbag) like it was K2, stare me right in the eye and piss on it.

Both she and her father can't be left with anything stuffed/filled, it just gets eviscerated.

 

[BallyRoanBaubles]

When mine was a pup he ate through my heated blanket wire I should've put it away but I was going out so pup went into cage, (ex) OH got back before me and let him out but didn't move blanket

 

[Smitty]

My sister's lurcher puppy chewed and ruined our Dad's false teeth. He was absolutely incandescent with rage. We (late teens and early 20s) thought it was the funniest thing ever and couldn't see what the fuss was about. I can see his point now

 

[meleeka]

Yep also been there . Luckily for me the sofa was second hand anyway. It had more foam that the one shown though and it was shredded into small pieces and covered the floor. The sofa was still intact apart from there was floor where all the cushions were meant to be.

 

[blood_magik]

My cocker went through a phase where he was obsessed with ripping up paper and cardboard, which was all very well until he somehow got hold of a full packet of paracetamol (I assume by jumping onto the kitchen counter)

That was an expensive night - out of hours charge, stomach pumped and overnight at the emergency vet.

Needless to say, he went back in his crate when he couldn’t be supervised until he grew out of chewing things.

Current pup hasn’t been too bad, although he did chew through the harness on my friends riding hat (which I obviously replaced) and a pair of my trainers. Hers, on the other hand, has absolutely annihilated her couch.

One of mine chewed the whole wiring loom out the boot a brand new car. I had to spend a couple of hours with some insulating tape connecting up wires with someone else seeing what that made work, or not! I remember wondering what someone was going to think when they found the rats nest of wires in a few years’ time when the tape lost its stickiness.

 

[rabatsa]

Two dogs who should have known better made confetti of a duvet that had been left draped over a chair. A greyhound with a chew habit had glasses, mobile phone x2 and the really scary day he took a brand new asthma inhaler off the table and overdosed when he pierced the canister. We dare not try to move him to take to the vets, he was flat out on the floor, hyperventilating and his heart could be heard racing from across the room. The phone advice was to keep everything quiet and if he survived two hours then he should be alright.

My friend's pup did this in his brand new van. He left her in the front seat when he popped into work because he hasn't moved the very expensive boxes over yet.

So after having his new wheels pretty much rendered useless, he turned up to club in an old banger and then I absolutely tore him a new one for leaving her in that position, she did end up being sick for days after swallowing all sorts of nonsense.

 

[Bearsmum]

Yep, our first dog, a rescue from the dogs trust ( should have been more cautious his name was Tyke) chewed a brand new sofa, telephone cables and consistently found the tea strainer and ate ,one of his party pieces in later life was to open the upright freezer, eat everything in the bottom two drawers and leave the door open for the rest to defrost, he was wonderful when the twins arrived though and was so gentle with them as they grew, lived to a very grand age and always remembered with love

Until we got Luna, I had never realised quite how many feathers were in a feather cushion!

 

[Landcruiser]

Our lurcher Joe was terrible as a teenager/young dog, although it was smaller stuff, not sofas. He was tall so nicked stuff from worktops. He took all the tabs off Lock and Lock tupperware boxes, chewed loads of wooden spoons and other utensils, pan handles, chewed the top off the coffee machine, corners off cushions...but the worst was when he chewed up my brand new varifocal glasses which had just cost me over £400, literally the day after I had them. Found them (or what was left of them) on the lawn missing a lens and an arm and the rest chewed to shards. Thankfully he grew out of it!

 

[Boulty]

I am quite lucky that the Hooligan can’t possibly steal something without then parading around with it to show everyone his achievement! He does steal ANYTHING not nailed down though (I mean who steals a sheet of paper FGS?!)

In a totally idea world he would happily & voluntarily give me these things without fuss. In the real world whilst I CAN retrieve things from his mouth he’s a speedy little gremlin who I’d have to catch first (& he looooooves it if you chase him!) & having presided over MANY foreign body removals at work I also don’t wish to encourage the swallowing of contraband so we compromise & exchange them for a treat or a toy. Unfortunately this does mean he sometimes goes out in the garden looking for stones & pebbles to exchange for food. Still cheaper than surgery (& he is enough of an arse to ingest things of you ignore him!)

He never has & never will be trusted with the run of the house unsupervised. For the first few years of his life we babygated him into half of our fairly narrow kitchen whenever he was left (he did have a crate but he never settled well for more than an hour or so with the door shut but was content with having a bit more space) to remove such temptations as the chair & table legs & the fridge plug. When the gate eventually died (it was a moveable free standing one to allow kitchen to be opened up fully during day) he was eventually trusted with the whole kitchen and has mostly behaved since bar the odd door scratching episode when he’s “not tired yet”

 

[ArklePig]

My dog, while not much of a thief is also a 'parader of wins' @Boulty . The worst being my knickers on Christmas at the in-laws. Bridget Jones style ones.

Be grateful they weren’t a little wisp of lace, at least the in laws will think you’re a sensible girl.

 

[Boulty]

Oh he’s had various pairs of knickers / boxers when idiots leave the dirty washing basket next to the washing machine rather than safely in the partitioned off bit of garbage (which is of course where the bin has to live!), several pairs of my mums glasses, a few charger cables, paper money, dirty tissues, pot plants removed from their pots & brought into the house, dead creatures that the cat leaves in the garden… thankfully we don’t have polite company very often/ ever tbh!

 

[lizziebell]

reminds me of the 3 cheeky whippets

 

[misst]

I love that he's named them all after fashion designers!
