A dog of one talent

Our puppy, Tex, has never met a paper he didn’t like–to destroy! The dog can render an entire roll of toilet paper useless in milliseconds. His nose, which should rightly be classified as a weapon of mass destruction, comes equipped (apparently without upgrade!) with Paper Product Radar. In the presence of said PPR, all paper products in the Taylor household tremble with fear and uncertainty–when will their time come? When will they meet their untimely end?

For a treasured keepsake, that moment of crossing over was today, February 26. The human in charge forgot to activate the Puppy Restraint Apparatus (aka, baby gate), at which time Tex charged downstairs in utter joy of his freedom of movement. A few moments later, Tex sauntered back upstairs with a satisfied grin (the human swears on it!)… clutching in his mouth a few tattered remains of his kill.

The puppy training diploma--that was chewed up by the puppy

Is it some twisted karma that he shredded his puppy training diploma?!

    LOL!! He is one smart puppy dog! Maybe the training was better than you thought…he did fetch the paper. ;)

    I think you should bring the diploma back to the trainer and demand a refund. ;D

    That’s my grand-dog! What a pup! Like Jo said, he did fetch the paper — I think you should re-assemble his diploma and frame it for posterity’s sake… :-)
