Our destructive little dog...

Phoebe likes to destroy things. She likes to lick the walls and chew on the carpet. You name it, she loves to eat it. I don't know how many shoes I have had to throw away because of her destructive nature. I am pretty sure it got worse after she had her back surgery 3 years ago.

The latest "victim" was a wooden spoon we had out for Taryne to bang on some of my baking pans. And as usual, an item can be out and be "available" for destruction for days or weeks before she decides to target that item. This was the case with the wooden spoon. Taryne has been playing with them for weeks. I noticed the other day a small chunk was missing from the wooden spoon, but I took that as just play wear and tear. We have several wooden spoons and since I NEVER use them to cook with, I thought they would be great for Taryne to play with because I would not miss them. Well, tonight we went for ice cream (yes, again) and when we came back this is what I found on the floor...

The spoon was in PIECES!!! I hope she didn't eat too much of the spoon and I really hope it doesn't make her sick. That is all we need right now is an emergency trip to the vet because small pieces of wood are stuck in her intestine or worse it tears her intestine...

Until next time...Gig'em!
