    Forget the homework, go for the iPod..

    Ugh. I'm so angry at Ivy.

    For five months, I have tolerated her teething. Cable cords, books, clothes, shoes, chairs, tables, fine. Go at it, Ivy. I don't care. Those things never meant much to me and they were replaceable with $20 at most.

    But when you go for my iPod, the Coach iPod case, and my $400 glasses that I am in love with, you've crossed the line. I can't even put into words how angry, upset, and heartbroken I am. I know it's all material, but those three items were the most used and most cherished material items I own. And together they cost at least $650. We don't have that kind of money!!

    I am NEVER going through puppyhood again!!

    Geesh.. one reason I got Sage instead of a pup.

    I'm so sorry that happend. The worst thing Zoey ever chew up was a whole 36 package of pepsi and the can's to go with it, our garage was a mess. We lucked out on T.j, he was never a big chewer. (((HUGS)))
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    Do the glasses, at least, have some kind of guarantee or insurance on them? If they are less than a year old, you might check with where you got them - you may be able to at least get the lenses replaced free ... or half price anyway.

    Yup - the prime lesson of puppy-ownership is to keep any treasured belonging up and out of her reach.

    When I was a teenager, our Saint Bernard pup chewed/destroyed ONE shoe out of each pair I owned. Every time I forgot and left the closet door ajar ...
    and I knew it was my own fool fault, but that didn't make it any cheaper!

    My one cat, Finae the dilute Tortie, is a chewer. She chews electrical cords, plastic bags, cardboard, boxes of any kind of material... you leave it out, she chews it. She chewed the ear pieces on my glasses too. She's a real pip, and she's not a kitten any more either. She's going on 8 years old and still does this!

    I'm sorry you're having so much trouble with Ivy chewing. Some pups are worse than others. I had a Shepherd/Collie once that chewed until she was two years old! Yep, ate pieces out of the wooden basement steps and even ripped up the linolium in the kitchen. It's pretty much hide everything and/or confine the pup any second you can't be watching her. I hope you have better luck with Ivy in the future.

    Nope, no insurance or guarantee on the frame nor lenses. I just wish she had left the lenses intact. The frame doesn't bother me as much, but the lenses!!! We just are not financially able to throw away $650 like that and this just hurts very badly.

    I'm sorry to hear about your things getting chewed The same thing happened to one of my best friends, she had used a bonus from work to finally get herself an ipod video and she only had it a few months before her bassett hound decided to eat it.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!
