    Yikes! It's always that foam/stuffing that they like. Same thing at our house - anything with that stuffing in it is like candy to a kid! So we don't buy those types of toys anymore. They just don't last and Kipawa refuses to clean up his mess when he is done with them. :)

  • Sad to say that was not a toy though…..that was a couch cushion!

  • We're very fortunate- our B., Mojo, doesn't tear anything up! Except his stuffed toys. If we leave his toys out, he pulls out all the stuffing!!!!

    Not to them - a toy it was :D

  • Oakley is hit or miss… He is mainly crated because he can be good Until he's bad, and web he is bad it is really bad! Just when you think it's safe he proves that it's better he is crated. One time he broke into my pantry and opened two boxes of hard pasta and ripped up a whole box of tea. My area rugs were covered with broken shells and for weeks after ( no matter that I steam cleaned my rugs) when it got hot out my house smelt like green tea! I have pictures, you can't even see the carpet!

  • The joys of living with a Basneji!!!

  • I have a suspition that Basenji's and Shiba Inu's have the same 'destroy furniture gene', between our B's, Mr Baroo & Bitty and our 14yo Shiba they have almost destroyed our sofa and love seat in the LR. Sable, our Shiba, one Saturday when we were bead showing, industriously tore all the upholstrey from the arm of the sofa, leaving the wooden and fiber board form.

  • I ended up getting some Bitter Apple spray and that has so far deterred them from trying to eat it again. Now if I could only get a jug of it for when I try to load the dishwasher…...

    Oh Barklessdog, you are a brave person. I must now stand with you in insane-solidarity and admit I bought it too. It is awful but when you get the line "we couldn't say goodbye so we took him home" part, you know you got to help support the woman. lol

    Well she wasn't so good yesterdy - she chewed on the arms of the chair in the living room. I was going to buy a new one anyway but I think I'll wait until she shows me she can be good everyday.
