OWNER...1 DOG...0...kinda

z...

To make a long story as short as possible i have a husky... sorta like my pic. his name is Tucker and is now 1 year old... for the last 12 months he has been a PITA when i am not home... when i am home he is the best dog. I cant put him in a cage because my neighbors complain about him howling at the top of his lungs. He has chewed my sofas. eaten anything made of wood. ....eaten my extensive collection of magazines. and decided recently on chewing my carpet for dessert. To stop him from eating the rest of my carpet before i replace it all, i layed linoleum tiles on top of my carpet...( yes very hick...but effective so i thought). That lasted about a month till he realized he could rip those up and eat some more. (i would come home to him with these tiles stuck all over him as he would rip them off).. decided to get real tiles and cinder blocks only to find he is into magic and can pick them up and move them neatly into stacks for me. During all this time he always has this look like....hey dad i got your number... no matter what you do i am always 4 paws ahead of you. well i had a breakthrough... i found something called a scat mat... it zaps a dog everytime they step on the mat.... JACKPOT. I set it up and he walked on it 1 time.... and he is scared to move anywhere near the mats. he gave me a look like alright fine you have won the war.... so tonight i lay my head down in VICTORY......till he finds the next target
