about a little over a year and a half ago my husband and I decided to adopt a puppy from the local shelter well it is hard to pick just one so we came home with two.... a beagle pitt mix named pebbles and a shepherd mix named wilma.... both dogs have SEVERE anxiety issues and are heavily medicated.. Wilma also has Severe food allergies she now eats better then we do venison dog food... Can you say dogs with issues...
to start with we used to leave them both in our laundry room and kitchen to give them some playing room.. well after 4 holes all the way through the dry wall we decided to crate both dogs. pebbles then ate the wall through her crate not sure how she did it but it happened.. so she is now crated away from the wall. Well wilma has issues with the crate, she has scars on her nose and no hair on the end of her tail from beating it against the inside of the crate. after a broken metal crate and a broken plastic crate and being able to get our of it with it still locked up ( no idea how she did this) we decided that we need to leave her out... that was a good idea i swear, though the dog is houdini... wilma can be left out. we noticed nothing gets destroyed when its only her loose in the house. but pebbles the destroyer is still crated.
Here’s a list of things they have eaten......
