Only a shredded toilet roll greeting me rather than a shredded door or payback poop.

Rescue pup Separation Anxiety issues receding, plus a great walk (yet not hand in "hand" -- yet), but many "conversations" with mailboxes and shrubbery.

Happened here a few times. I had my own pups and I introduced a temporary rescue. Went to the store, and when I came home, my dogs were cowering and the rescue was very happy. He tore up my furniture. It looked like Christmas day in doggytown.

Very good of you to do rescue.

Returned one day after an hour and half to find pad shredded. crate UNLOCKED, my exit door shredded. Gates galore for quite a while.

Many visits to and by trainers, and vet now deems him "uncratable" due to his status as a rescue and being mostly miniature poodle (SMART.)

Also deemed by me and pros "adorable", "sweet", "friendly", "hilarious" -- and also deemed by me a "keeper."

Baby steps.

Don't canines have paws instead of hooves? And are you admitting you have hooves?

LuckyCharms, I think you hit the ganja a little too hard! I'm jealous!
