Fantastic pictures, made me smile on my first dreary day back at work, and remember my ex-boyfriends dog, german sheperd/labrador cross, was the same. We couldn't leave the house for ten minutes without him destroying the furniture or emptying the bin for us. He used to drag the rubbish around the whole house! We tried putting saucepans on top of the bin so it made a noise when touched, it didn't bother him. In the end we put the rubbish bin outside everytime we went out. Then he took to climbing on the worktops and ate everything, cupasoups, cereal, packet casserole mixes etc. One time he ate my boyfriends build up energy drink, he was hyper all day!
