When Gemma was a puppy she chewed the tassles off the rug, tassles off the curtains, and tassles off the cushions, she had bits of thread in her teeth which we kept removing!
Gemma used to chuck her toys around, she had sausages on a rope and would swing them around then chuck them, it got a bit dangerous so i had to get rid of it. She also liked to nick my fluffy slipper, found it many times all soggy and wet in her bed! :rolleyes:
Gemma did the same, i would give her a dental chew and she would walk around whining and trying different places to sit and chew, she mainly ended up sat by the kitchen door with it.
Ahhh that's sweet. Gemma used to hide her toys and retrieve them when we were in the living room, i was forever seeing them stashed behind cushions or furniture :D

These posts made me giggle:).
It was the same with Gemma...
One rule was no sleeping in my bedroom, so after moving her bed into my bedroom :) she slept there every night!
Thank you all:). Yes it's the hardest part for us humans, she went very quickly at home which is a blessing as she didn't suffer and i was with her. I got her when she was 3 months old, she had been neglected and was full of fleas but i took her in and what a great dog she turned into. I'll post...
I fed my Gemma on Wagg dry dog food, i always added fresh carrots to it, which she loved, she would also have roast chicken. She lived to be 14 so i was doing something right:)
I'm Saffy.
My little friend Gemma died last week, she was a 14 year old Labrador, i'll be getting a new fur baby when the time feels right, until then i thought i'd join a dogs forum and get some ideas before i take the plunge.
