For some reason, I've always liked dog destruction pictures.  I think it's a warped sickness   :chuckle:
Our weim was horrible that way.  Would strip the bed, chew things into almost unidentifiable matchsticks, clear the counters and rip open pillows.  All in 20 minutes. 
At least she never ate the sheetrock or ripped out the car interior like a friends pit.

Thankfully, she grew out of it.

To stop the pulling use the "schwerts" on him,attach a carabiner to his d ring,attatch a checkcord to the d ring run the checkcord behind both frontlegs and take the loose end up through the carabiner,you now have a slipknot around the dogs chest that centers up over his withers,there is a nerve in the armpit area that is very sensitive to pressure................. that dog will not pull anymore.And his act of pulling will be enough to subdue himself.I've used this on tasmanian devil dogs that you could barely hold onto,with the schwerts you could control them with just a couple of fingers.

Well, he is very strong, pulls me all over the place, trying to break him of that will be a chore in it's self.

I have yet had time to put together his kennel so I let him sleep in the garage, got up this morning and  :yike:  :yike: OH MY GOD   :yike: I guess he didn't like being in there. So today I put his kennel together and hopefully it will be bomb proof!
