Otis can ruin a bra in two seconds, I can't leave my undies out , in case the great underwear shredder is about. He just manages to chew through the strap, and thats it, it's ruined, I have lost count of how many he has got through, they are blimin expensive too ! I have to make sure they are hidden, or put in a drawer. The other thing is his blankets, they are full of holes where he has had a quick chew. And yes, he has lots of other things he can chew, kongs, an antler etc . Oh well, it's a good thing I love him so much xx
Re: underwear We had an Airdale terrier who loved knickers, he's get then out of the laundry basket then take them off, he didn't chew but there were many occasions visitors were greeted by my mother knickers strewn across the front lawn.
Re: underwear Yep. I have a bra destroyer here too - she will take them off the line if she can reach! An expensive lesson for me to put them out of reach! Thank goodness Gypsy isn't interested even if presented with socks, bras etc. It can sometimes be a fail for trainee Guide dogs if they steal or chew washing etc. Their owners can't see what they are up to!
Re: underwear Charlie is a nightmare - he used to go for bras even if people were wearing them. He'd snuggle up to a female guest, with soft "I love you sooooo much" eyes and gentle ear nibbles, then dive in to chew the end of the underwired bra. Thankfully, this habit is declining as he gets older. He will still raid the laundry basket and nick knickers and socks. Got to keep a really close eye on him and pretty baskets for laundry are out - strong clip fastening lids here.

Re: underwear Mira goes digging for socks when they are in the washing basket. I can understand when they are waiting to go in the machine that she can smell them out, but she can locate them in a basket of clean stuff waiting to go on the line! She just stands by the basket looking intently then when I turn away she gently extracts a sock and trots off. She is good at giving them back though, so we have never lost any yet!
Re: underwear Socks are the target here thank goodness.....I really don't want visitors greeted with my stunning undies Between Lizzie taking her socks off everywhere and anywhere and the dogs running round with any sock they can find it's a miracle any of us leave the house with a matching pair on ! ;D
