I need help!!
« on: May 07, 2010, 10:50:12 AM »
I have a 100lb 2yr old yellow child that is chewing on everything!!!! it started happening about a month after duck season was over.  i dont know if he's bored or what. he's out on five acres with two other playmates.. i take him swimming all the time, he gets all sorts of attention from the other dogs as well as my family and i. he also has bones and other toys he can naw on.. so i dont get why in the last couple months he's eaten the nobs on a table saw, flower boxes, an air comprssor, all the electonics on the fish finder on my dad's North River!!! :bash: and many other things.. he is uncut which could not help? i dont know... any ideas would be very helpfull thanks.

My guess is he is just bored. Normally they slow on the chewing around age two. Perhaps a little kennel time when you are not around would do him some good? I have a few dogs as well and though they play together a lot they all make time to be a pest at some point. Give him some good hard work a few times a day, see if that helps. Not just ten minutes of fetch but real work, a solid 1/2 hour swimming followed by some work wear him down a bit. I know at 100 lbs he will tire (it may take a bit but he will). I have a GSP that hunts all day everyday. The Wife hates it when she leaves snakes on the porch (the snake hunting thing is not good as we hunt in eastern WA in the early fall and I do not want to deal with that), we had a mouse under the seat of our quad one day and she removed all the soft parts of the seat and wiring to get at it  >:( >:(. She is no longer allowed in the shed, my fault but she knows to stay out now. We now spend more time with them (working) and it seems to be helping.

We had this prob are boy chewed everything we took all toys and chew things away. Once a day we would give him a hard bone to chew on and after an half hour he would get tired of it and we would put it away. After a few months we started giving him toy's to play with once in a while he'll start to chew one of his toy's up and we just take it away and give him a hard bone. He hasn't chew anything but his own stuff.
