I got Clipse when he was 7 months old, and aside from shredding some paper and chewing a hole in the wall once, he wasn't really destructive, and is completely trustworthy now.

Here's a pic of Sidney.
Yup, It definatly depends on the dog and the training.
Just like you would tell a child to stop chewing on this or that, and correct them -- You'd do the same for a dog.

As for shredding paper -- Simba LOVES to shred paper, But he won't do it unless I give him permission to.

His favorites are paper bags. We leave paper bags on the floor all the time after shopping, until we put them away. Simba won't touch one of them, unless I say "OK, Simba GET IT!"

The picture doesn't show for me.
