Ah, Dog ownership

Most times a joy.

Sometimes a headache.

Right now, Zoey has been throwing up a lot. Not fun.

AND, decided to do THIS yesterday while I was in the shower.

Yup. That is the wall under the window by her bed.

Funny thing is. Neither kid sitting the room saw or heard anything until I called them to come upstairs. Ah, the power of the tv.

We have no idea what made her want to do it. But she sat and chewed the wall. Dead center. Enough to be past the paper and pulp to the chalk. Not a corner. She has only chewed the wood trim one other time, after we had kenneled her for a week.

Well. She won't be chewing this spot again. It is covered with cayanne pepper. She took one sniff yesterday and stayed away. She remembers the pepper on the wood trim. It took her two licks of that to realize she didn't want to do it again. It was funny to watch though. She licked it. Jumped back. Barked at the trim. But, then went right back and tried again! Intelligence at it's best!

So, yeterday goes into the "not so much fun" catagory of pet ownership. Believe me, Jim was NOT happy.
