in 'murica, their walls aren't made out of brick and mortar like sane people around the world use to build. It's usually plaster/some kind of wood (I forget what it's called, dry wall?) so it's quite easy for a dog to actually work their magic and destroy a wall, especially if YOU LOCK THEM UP IN THE ******* KENNEL WHILE GOING TO WORK YOU MONSTERS

Not plaster anymore. It’s drywall

Using a kennel is actually a common and humane way to train a dog. You want it big enough they can turn around, but not so big they can pee without laying in it. It’s really no different than using a playpen for a toddler.

he chewed a corner then just kept expanding his hole going down the hall

I have a husky. It’s not my first rodeo with the fur devils. Crating has saved them from so much trouble. The one time mine was left out for a ten minute errand, he ingested 5 bags of gummy bears after mountain climbing and opening a cabinet. After a night in the er to take care of the blockage, pancreatitis, and liver numbers that were off, he would do it again if given the chance. At least it didn’t end in a huge vet bill I hope.

So you’re supposed to let it roam the house and destroy whatever it wants?

when you have a kid n want to go on a date you get a baby sitter dumb ass.

he will be he is just a crazy baby Bassett hound

Haha! Yes! That’s why I adopt dogs that are 1-2 years old — to avoid the wanton destruction of puppies.

“Those kind of behaviors” happen regardless. My dog — never crated — ripped up the linoleum and chewed on the concrete when he was a puppy. Because that’s what puppies do, crates or not.

false. but ok.
