Mercy me Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 He is just tearing through religious material! Sounds like he is really eating up all he can get about Catholicism! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 He hasn't chewed any of Austin's polar or geography books. I have literally put all my books below 5 feet high in plastic storage bins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercy me Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Not that it will help matters any but they do generally outgrow it. Although being a hound I am surprised that he didn't go for something that smelled more like you. Perhaps a tempting distraction might distract?

CatherineM Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 He got up at 5 am this morning. He got ahold of my first aid kit. I had brought it in from the car to do my yearly update on things. Epi pen needed replacing, but other than that, everything survived being out in the winter. I had it on the floor in the bedroom. We shut that door when we leave, so most things are safe. He has learned how to open zippers. Thank God the epi pen wasn't in there. If he's snapped that, it probably would have killed him. He also got my VFW pins off the wall. My 5 year and 10 year pins are missing. I'm hoping they are just under a couch somewhere. If he's eaten them, I will just have them replaced. He also destroyed my crossword puzzle pencil. I sleep with ear plugs because my husband snores, so I didn't hear him having fun. There are gauze pads and bandaids everywhere. I can't find the CPR barrier either. I have a feeling his mushy mud pie is going to be interesting. Last week he got into the Christmas stuff and ate some tinsel. His mushy mud pie was very pretty and sparkly for a few days. It's been 15 years since my last puppy, and I had forgotten how much fun they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 I'm going to have to find a new place to put my throwing axe. He's been on the shelf right next to the shelf it's on. Not that it would hurt his hard head, but it might fall and cut a big hole in the sofa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catholicinsd Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 The real questions is why were your books and Rosaries on the floor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] They weren't. He thinks he's a mountain goat. He climbed from the couch, across the back, to a filing cabinet, and then to the book shelf. He actually pushed a rolling desk chair into the kitchen and used it to access his milk bones box. He climbed into the bathtub, and up on my shower bench in order to jump across to the elevated toilet, onto the vanity and then to grab something on top of the closed medicine cabinet. We are currently keeping the toilet paper on the shower rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Actually, I don't think I've eaten shellfish since I moved from St. Pete. Shrimp under 6 inches is just not in my vocabulary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Mr. Adventurous is sound asleep on my bed right now. I've had bassets for 30 years, so I knew what I was getting into. He was a reject. Mom and dad are show dogs, but he has a misplaced nipple. One is right next to the next one, so no one wanted him. Except us that is. We both are kind of rejects too.
