Heee!

Just wanted to tell you that my cousin and her boyfriend got a beagle-basset hound cross who's apparently spoiled stupid and has chewed at least two things a day since she came home 3 months ago. Well, except for a couple days ago when she was sleeping off the drugs from being spayed. I secretly call her Darwina.

Oh, man. Puppies and chewing. It's awful. If you're lucky, they outgrow it. A friend of mine has a dog that has serious separation anxiety. He (the dog, not the friend) recently chewed up a three-foot-by-five-foot section of wall, including insulation. Unbelievable. And expensive!

Please tell me that was a big dog. A Great Dane maybe. Or an Irish Wolfhound.

Nope. Terrier mix, about 35 lbs., who was lonely and left alone in the house while owners were at work. They've hired a canine behavior expert to help them, and I think they're crating him when they go to work. :(

So funny, and so very Jean.

Thanks! I suspect she would have gotten Darwin an Emma Frost blow-up doll to maul, but she's afraid he'd rupture it and the sound would scare him. Plus, blow-up dolls are gross!

It might be almost as plastic as Emma herself! Poor Darwin could choke.

*giggles* Just what I needed to get me through a dreary afternoon.

Glad it made you giggle! It's windy and wet and horrible here, too -- I'm knitting with my kitties and watching "Bones." It's all very soothing.

Heh. Jean has a whole stash of stuffed seal points to feed to Darwin as she sees fit.

I thought we'd find out Darwin was chewing on a Barbie doll that looked like Emma.

Chewing. I had a friend who had a friend who's dog was left in the car for FIVE MINUTES while the person went to get cash at the bank and chewed through the pocket in the back of the front passenger seat to get at the candy there. And promptly puked it all up on the way home.

Hee. I considered doing the Barbie thing, but I figured he might choke -- Barbies aren't very sturdy. Then I thought maybe an Emma Frost blow-up doll, but that's a) really gross; and b) probably gonna rupture with one good chomp and scare the dog. So I went with a stuffed cat. My old dog loved to chew stuffed animals; she used to gnaw out their eyes (really gross) and then carry the animal around, chewing it and shaking it. It was cute to see her with her teddy bear.
