We have 2 x 7 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback males (brothers)
We bring them to the park twice a week and they play with other dogs for 1 hr or more and we walk them every other day for approx 45 mins.
So far they have destroyed :
*Every pot plant my wife has atttempted to plant
*Every plant in the ground in the back yard less than tree size
*Dug a hole in one spot which you could bury a small car in (but no where else in the yard)
*Chewed my $1000 mobile phone
*Eaten 4 pairs of my wife's shoes (surprisingly never touched mine)
*2 beds
*2 matteresses
*about 3 sprinklers
*They pull clothes off the line (that's a new one)
*They dug a whole under the fence and one dog was trapped in the neighbours yard (his brother was keeping him on the other side of the fence - each time he popped his head to get back his brother would jump him)
*We put blocks near the fence to stop that and one month later they both dug around the blocks and got caught there again - this time to play with another dog in that yard.
*They constantly grab my wife's stockings to play tug of war
*Any clothes laying around they will just grab and run with
* One will literally keep lookout while the other jumps up and grabs food of the counter then the both run outside to share - I caught one keeping lookout and run away because he couldnt warn his brother in time so just left him
*They have a load of toys - hardly ever see them plaing with them
*They will lie silently until the other walks past them then they will grab the others leg and trip him over just because they are bored - this usually ends in a fight
Crazy dogs - wouldnt give them up for the world :rolleyes:
