She has chewed a hole in her bed, we cover it with a blanket but she decided she was issuing a protest to my going out today so removed blanket and half of inside foam fill and chewed it into small pieces which were then distributed all around the kitchen in what was 100% a planned protest NOT a spider.

Her brother isn’t a chewer (bar chew toys he’s meant to chew) but informed me that he had tried to stop her, he had reasoned with her but being deaf she hadn’t listened. He was very apologetic. She was not.

Little bugger. Butter wouldn’t melt!

I think that’s inevitable :joy::joy:

“I want to put an end to all the rumors, I want to show people that there is no danger in getting vaccinated. On the contrary, it will protect us.”
Said Indias public health ambassador Vivekh, on national TV as he took the vaccine.

He passed away less than 24 hours later

And 3 780 people have died in just the last 24 hours in India of Covid.

I believe Vivekh was a very good person and the news is devastating. They are claiming it has nothing to do with the vaccine but I suspect that is not true and he did develop a blood clot as he died from cardiac arrest however I’m also sure he would be very sad that his aim to encourage the vaccine roll out ended so tragically.

There are risks with any medication but letting this virus run free without vaccinations is much, much worse!

Perhaps we should ask Brenna to slide the vaccine/Covid chat into its own topic? That way people can choose to engage with it or avoid it if they fancy. It can be quite a divisive subject.

I think that would be a good idea.

That does actually sound a bit yuk but I agree the name alone makes it sound lovely!

Going back to yesterday’s memes, this one made me realise I’m not the only person who’s had to stand next to their own front door trying to wedge a key in the lock with several other keys all twisted into it! They are hell to untangle! :rofl:

@Peitho :laughing: i thought it was rather apt. Our terrier used to shred things so more than once we came home to stuffing across the floor. He had a thing for cardboard tubes. I think he must have been a hampster in a previous life

Ours chewed the car, my fathers new slippers and my (pretty expensive) snorkelling mask :laughing: oh, and some chair legs.
Other than that we got away with it mostly

I now have a mental image of a dog running around with a pair of knickers on its head :rofl:

Most of it was when he was a puppy, he only tended to chew cardboard when he got older. So it could have been worse. Most of the furnature survived unscathed

Ours only really chewed the kitchen furniture. But the chairs got so bad we had to buy new ones…
She still likes chewing anything made of wood, even though it’s terrible for her teeth (not to mention the astronomically expensive in dentist bills). Can’t seem to stop her.

I once saw one of my cousins terriers demolish a golf ball, its amazing what they can get through

Thankfully out little terror tends to only go through her own bed rather than any of our furniture, bit hard on her brother who then also ends up with a shredded bed but he’s very tolerant of her! Occasionally socks and knickers are removed from the lower rung of the clothes horse but they’re never destroyed just treasured :rofl:

Back around 1998 when my then dog was still very much a juvenile, we were coming back from a walk. As we were making our way down a narrow, ill-lit underpass, I saw the silhouette of a young mum with her baby in a buggy coming toward us. There was enough room for us to pass each other but only just. We slipped by each other without breaking step.

Several hundred yards later, we got to my house. I bent down to unclip the lead and harness. Dangling from her mouth, held by the very tips of her front teeth, was something small and white.

It was the baby’s sock. :laughing:

This brought back memories of our dog many years ago who had the very naughty habit of stealing knickers from the washing basket. I’d be loading the washing machine and the minute my attention was diverted he’d sneak a pair of knickers out of the basket and run off with them. He’d be found licking the gusset of the knickers out in the hall or lounge! :laughing: Pretty revolting and he had such a guilty look when discovered.

When you say “dog”, do you actually mean “husband”? :rofl: :joy:
