Oh he can also jump a 6ft fence but prefers to escape through the conifer hedge it's more of a challenge ... Any advice welcomed x

OP he sounds adorable, even through all that chewing. Does he howl?

My dog thankfully doesn't chew but my first ever springer spaniel did. He could open the fridge too. The most bizarre was my mum's shopping bag. He ate the bag but for some reason left the handles

He howls randomly usually in the middle of the night and does bark but not that often x he also try's to bury things indoors which is highly amusing especially if it's something he's dug up from the garden ....the latest was a half eaten crumpet x

My cats went through a phase of chewing wool when they were getting their adult teeth.

It was always odd socks, never a pair and my best jumpers

Don't huskies tend to have this problem as they are pack dogs?

I'm sure I remember being told that you can't have a husky without getting another dog...

My cats as kittens got behind the hi fi and chewed through the speaker wires. As adults they would go out hunting and bravely capture, destroy, and bring home gifts of crisp packets and polo wrappers

My lab used to chew the strangest things! She's destroyed all the cables on the PC, monitor and printer. The strangest thing she done was with ex's, she used to eat the crotch out of worn knickers!

The best one was with an ex, the dog chewed up one shoe from six pairs of very expensive heels

...... Looking back I've never been so proud lol

I used to have a giant french lop who escaped his cage with a war wound on his nose. I came home to a chewed bra, the cable for my laptop, a flip flop and the telephone wire. His cage door was closed so it really did look like he was some sort of super bunny but he'd sneaked through the bottom part and the bars.

Over the years he ate through my carpet, a bookcase, various skirting boards, a bit of the sofa and the majority of his toys.

My cat has destroyed absolutely nothing.

My allegedly adorable Staffie keeps eating parts of my memory foam bed topper !

He even opens the door to get in there !

the other week I left a box on purpose on my bed (pre emptive )

So he just had a go at the other end !!

I'm gonna end up with a memory foam dog I'm sure of it

Yeah the husky can also open doors which is handy as he lets himself out in the garden( not round handles though he's not that clever he can't grip them with his paws ) x

We have dogs like yours. Nothing is safe. One vomited up a Tampax he had taken from a bag. They chew skirting,shoes,knickers,hair brushes,toys,bottle lids,my laptop box,coal from the fire,stuffed toys-they start with the eyes and nose then pull the stuffing out of the head. They are bin rats too,eating egg shells,cup cake wrappers and anything remotely smelling of food. They lick people all the time,probably seeing if they are worth chewing on. Wooden Jenga blocks are a favourite. They stopped chewing through electrical flex,probably got a shock. Used tissues are stolen and ripped up,it used to be the whole toilet roll stolen from the bathroom. I could go on

We own a dachshund puppy he's almost a year old now

For his size he will chew through anything, we have to buy the extra strong toys, the normal ones don't last 15mins on average.

Bones from the butcher keep him entertained

I work with dogs. It's insane what some of them have eaten. My old collie ate a lawn mower and one of my vibrators. Found them both buried in a pit in the garden.

Some of the things include...

A decorative jar of seashells

An xbox

A mac air

An iPhone 5c

The contents of the medicine cupboard

Part of the boot of my car

Someone's pet hamster

Used condoms

Dirty nappies

Are to name a few.

Welsh springer ate a ton of roses (it was gift wrapped and he managed to leave the paper and all the sweet wrappers in a little pile); a frozen chicken and a laptop power adaptor. The wierdest thing was a pack of crayons, resulting in rainbow poo all over the garden a day or so later...

My alsation/lab cross had our sofa too. I thought we had been broken into as it was on the other side of the room then this head popped up and I noticed all the foam and bits of material all over the floor. He then went onto rolls of new wallpaper, dining room chairs, tv, back door, window frames, anything that was lying about but again grew out of it

yep, sounds just right for a husky

highly hypo and need a huge amount of exercise, definitely an outside dog which needs a large run and large kennels to sit on top off. Huskies; same as Malamutes need a companion, mal & male get on, female & male get on, but female & female will fight to the death. further than a high fence, the fence also requires to go a few feet under ground as Huskies & Malamutes are expert tunnelling machines

Ive had malamutes for years, huskies are just too hypo for me, amazing dogs though, but not for the house proud

My Labrador used to eat shoes so we started making sure all our shoes went into the hall cupboard. Within 3 days she had eaten a hole through the hall wall into the cupboard, big enough for her to get her head through and steal shoes to eat

My double ender

and a bottle of lube, all our toys used to be in a box hidden under the bed and the dog somehow got in the bedroom and found it...the worse thing was, he took the half chewed double ender in my teenage sons bedroom.

That took some explaining!!

Ever thought of buying a muzzle for your dogs? Or putting them in a cage?

Seems like some expensive stuff has been destroyed.

My cat chewed up a knitting pattern. I do know of a friend's cat that chewed cables, broke lladro ornaments and climbed curtains.
