I found a 10 month old Doberman when I was 16 (named Patton,long story) and brought him home. He could find his way to anything and chew through it. So... my shoes, jackets, pillows, papers, anything, were all fair game. I had my guitar on a stand, and in my mind thought..."you can chew what you want, for now, as I would certainly begin training immediately, but if you so much as sniff that guitar, your out of here". Guess what, he must have had a go at almost everything I owned except...my guitar. They must be psychic. Funny, I could be in another room, and if I so much as thought about giving him a bath, he would try and sneak his way to the farthest reaches of my house. He also liked to "sing", I guess music runs in the family!
Pet Stories
Thought I'd share a pet story with you.Just recently I puchased some new speakers of which I am very proud of (B&W Nautilus 802's/803's/HTM-1/Velodyne HGS-15 sub). Anyway, after placing them around the living room, much to my dismay I started noticing some stain marks on the lower parts of the grilles. Suspecting the culprit was our six year old miniature pinscher, sure enough I caught him in the act of lifting his leg and relieving himself on one of my beautiful new speakers. After a sound flogging of his posterior I purchased some repellent and sprayed it on them ( it turned out to be an attractant ). Well,after threatening to either have him castrated or hang a clothes pin on him, my wife, who was beside herself defending her poor little darling, found a denim diaper with velcro tabs at the local pet store which she fitted him with and it works great ! It's kinda funny though to see him running around the house in a jock strap (guests get a real kick out of it). Anybody else got any pet stories they want to share ?
