Henry is beautiful!! When I adopted Ranger from the rescue shelter, that was his name and it so suited him I didnt feel the need to change it

oh, teddy bears are his favourite! He even got a hold of my 'cuddle' cushion full of polysterene balls - you can just imagine the mess!!

You could have Ranger for a day - eats everything!! If the rabbit food/new bag of dog food/cat food/guinea pig food/ etc goes missing I never have far to look - either with him in his bed or he will be outside having a feast We have 'lost' numerous items from the kitchen, new tub butter, bread, buns - basically anything we have been so silly as to leave sitting. Because he is so tall (greyhound) he doesnt even have to stretch Oh, by the way, my first comment was a joke - I wouldnt part with him for the world.

oh i no he really is the perfect dog has been very easy to train he takes part in agility and obeidience. At nearly 2 years old it just came as a shock as he really has never chewed anything else. He is already forgiven though love him to bits.

just need to find a nice new collar though...................

3 weeks after getting Bonnie, she had destroyed 2 pairs of shoes, a dressing table, a shoe cupboard, an Ikea bouncy chair, Hannah's toys and countless other non descript items that had been left lying around.

1 year after gettting her - still not house trained, buggering off when out walks, still chewing/eating anything she can get her teeth into and me ripping my hair out.

3 years later - fantstic dog! Comes back when told, used a stooge dog for puppies and goes into schools & nurseries for talks.

My advice - keep going! It does get better and he'll stop chewing eventually! In the immortal words of Casablanca - Maybe not today & maybe not tomorrow but soon....
