>> He settled down, and things are pretty cool now, but being 19 months old, he's a chewer.  I've had him on leash since I got him, and everything was fine till I got home with my brand new leather leash which he chewed in half in a perfectly streight line in two seconds flat.
>> Needless to say, I was embarrassed to call the school to order a new leash, but more embarrassed when the head trainer answered the phone.  He was cool about it, well for him, and said to give him a couple of weeks to get more leashes as theyn were out.

>> I'm hoping they'll just give me a new one, but I don't think I'll be that lucky.

>> Also, he appears to be a dog, but is a beaver.  He eats anything wooden outside, and I can't seem to break him of it.  I've said no, leash corrections, drop it and removed sticks and twigs from his mouth.  ug.
