Can I ask if you have any tips for this? Before this, I hadn’t heard anything from anyone with a similar problem like ours. My goodest boy is a 9 month old Portuguese Water Dog and he recently decided that the floor boards and every single one of my daughters’ Barbies weren’t enough to destroy and began removing the carpet for us.

He’s so smart and seems to be very empathetic when he’s not in destruction mode, but the constant destruction of things is putting a knot in what is an otherwise beautiful relationship right now. We’ve trained leave-it and settle down, but he’ll still grab things and if he’s left alone in his safe room he’ll find ways to make it unsafe.
