old vs. new

i am sure everyone is tired of hearing about our dog. but oh well. like i said in the last post, we got mosey a new "indestructible, chew proof" bed. well within 5 minutes mosey had ripped through it. that just didn't seem very promising to me. so we took the bed away and haven't given it back yet. the bed was so expensive i swear it must be made out of egyptian cotton. indestructible kind of course. wait, it's very destructible. so i don't know anymore. stupid egyptian cotton. we have given him back his old bed. he keeps dragging it out of his kennel and continues to rip it apart and eat more of it. we keep finding pieces of it in his poop. along with the leather casing of a softball and plastic wrappers that he must somehow find outside. i can't say that i am not impressed with his digestive system.

the funny thing is that we keep catching him hanging out in his old bed. outside of his kennel though. it's as if he doesn't want us to know that he secretly loves it. i don't know if i will ever understand this dog. but that is okay. yesterday sean was doing yard work and had him in the backyard with him. he made a somewhat makeshift fence to keep mosey in the back while he worked on the front yard. i came outside and mosey started climbing the fence. i kid you not. he was a foot off of the ground. he would have gotten over it had i not stopped him. we love our crazy, messy, mellow puppy dog. even if he is a little more crazy than mellow. maybe we will wait to give him his new bed after his old one completely disappears. oh and it may look somewhat intact.. but he has chewed through all of the layers but one. i am not sure if i mentioned before that he got out of his little fenced area one morning. sean opened our bedroom door to jump in the shower and mosey was chilling by our door like it was no big deal. we can't say that this dog doesn't continue to impress and amaze us.... but we now put little clamps on the gate so he can't get out. we still aren't sure how he got out before those anyway. he is one determined little puppy. and i can't ever seem to get mad at him because he has the cutest face in the whole entire world. he is the epitome of puppy dog eyes.

that is too funny chloe! he is pretty darn cute. i can't believe he conquered the unconquerable and chewed through that new bed. he just knows what he wants and wants to have it. what a smart pup!

Moses is the cutest dog!!! I love how he loves his old bed ... he seems like he is all about simple things :) LOL .. sending you a hug!! XO

awww. No matter what you ever say Mosey does, I'll always say "awww, he's so cute". You can probably return the expensive bed if it says that it's chew proof since it didn't work out. Maybe he chews them to make them more comfy? lol Probably not.

Dogs are such hooligans! We had a dog that could literally jump over the backyard fence. I won't tell you how that ended because it's sad. Puppies are so mischievous, but they're so stinking cute that you can't really get mad at them...even when they poo all over the house, or throw up, ug, both of those are bad.

hahaha!! That is exactly why I will need a smaller dog, that can't outsmart me. Moses reminds me of Marley and Me. Have you read/seen it? Well if you haven't, stop before you reach the end.

I don't know what it is but it feels like every time I try to leave you a comment either the internet goes out or some other bug happens and my comment gets lost.

Hate that!

but love moses. even if he is a rascal.

Oh my goodness our pups chew up EVERYTHING! I'm talking Betty can destroy full size soccer balls in 3 minutes flat...footballs in 2...
We go through toys like crazy! We've tried them all and they always tear them up...and then we went to target. They have these little turtles and butterflies for puppies with crinkly parts and ropes. I think they are something along the lines of "first stages" or something like that.... Only $4 each and the turtle has lasted a full year!!! You should definitely check them out. :)

Try wrapping the dog bed in a blanket. My dog did the same thing with those stupid "tear proof" beds. She chews on the blanket a little but since the ends of the blanket are under it... it helps a little.
