The chewing stage is the one thing I have always disliked about puppies!!!

I will not tell you what my arms and legs look like because of the little beast!!!

Thena is more than a year old and she hasn't stopped the chewing. I am still a walking bruise and bite marks.

Yesterday I got home and found her cheerfully chewing on a book, it was resting between her little paws. The decimated body of another book was strewn all over the living room floor. I was not a happy camper.

The doxie I had is now 4-5yrs old and still a bad chewer. She never outgrew it. I hope yours does. If not, don't feel guilty about finding someone with outdoor space that could make a nice home for her! Are there any obedience schools around? Maybe you could take her to those and let your daughter come to learn as well how to help train if they'll allow that and if you can afford it. Some places actually have reasonable prices if they do it in groups with the owners participation.
