wmw999 2,166 #9 February 17, 2006 Keep her more entertained. You can spend more time with her in the back yard (of course, her wish would be 24/7, but that's probably not going to happen), or you can train her to be indoors more, or you can get a friend for her whom she can torture and run around with. But running every day for a few miles might help. And might not The holes in my back yard got less frequent with increased doggie age. And I got rid of the lawn furniture with wooden arms .

Just be glad it was not your CD collection, your remote, your bean bag, your lotion bottles, your birth control pills (or the like)....get the idea? Could be she's having a little separation anxiety. Any possibility you could get her a non-destructive friend to keep her busy? Anyway, it looks to me like the culprit was possibly....oh, I don't know....maybe a....WOODCHUCK!

Icon134 0 #17 February 17, 2006 I do run her and it is better on the days when we run more then others... Quoteor you can train her to be indoors more She is actually primarily an indoor dog, and is usually quite laid back there... its when she gets to go outside (by herself) that she causes trouble. I imagine she'll calm down with age too... she's still a youngin at just barely a year old. In fact I brought her home this week last year... At the time she wasn't much of a fan of the camera... but she's gotten a lot better... Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spdoat 0 #18 February 17, 2006 Wow they do look alike!!! She is getting more brown undertones the older she gets too. We are guessing Lab Dalmation mix but she was a rescue puppy so we don't know for sure. All her litter mates were canibalized so we don't have any other puppies to compare to!

Essentially, I won 50% off a Bev competition Suit a year or so ago in a 2-way Comptetition bought a RW suit with all the extras... (I wanted something with a bit more speed variability too... so I had her use suplex instead of Nylon.) I wanted something for serious RW... Peated booties, Cordura Grippers, you know everything for like nothing So I decided to send my old (mostly black) jumpsuit back to get Camera wings (I asked for medium clipped in the crotch so I could use them to backfly later if I wanted...) Talk to Mike G... I don't remember how much she charged but it was much less then the cost of a new suit. Attached are photos of my Comp suit.Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Karma was a rescue as well... but I know that she is a mix of Labrador and Catahoula Leopard Hound. (her mom was the leopard hound her dad was the neighbor's Labrador... it happens that it was the owners second litter of mutts from the same parents (you'd think he'd have learned his lesson the first time.) all of Karma's littermates were adopted... so that is a good thing.

hottamaly 1 #22 February 17, 2006 You might want to see if there is an agility class you could take her to. Dogs like that want mental stimulation and the agility training really keeps them active. Then you could build a little coarce in the yard for him to play with.
