Puppy advice needed

ljcapps @ljcapps (1925) • United States 9 Dec 07

We have just recently gotten a new puppy. A six month old basset hound. While he is adorable I am having trouble teaching him not to chew on things he shouldn't. For instance glass ornaments and books. Any advice would help.

this is a test post.

ljcapps @ljcapps (1925) • United States 13 Nov 07

I was told by a friend of mine here on mylot that one of the keys to having a large response number is the time of day that the post is made. do you really think that post time is THAT relevant?
