and manage to pull out the one wire to the speakers and chew it into!! And of course you bring the broken piece of wire out to show it to mom cause you know she will be so proud of your chewing powers!

Tomorrow I'm off to the computer store.

At least the speaker wires dont have any REAL electrical "power" in them.  I have A Pom (Heidi) that was given to us when she was a puppy because she chewed through a lamp cord while the lamp was on, and it totally fried the inside of her mouth. The people that owned her at the time didnt even take her to a vet when it happened, and she got gangrene inside her mouth---that's when they called us and said "help us--DO SOMETHING" so we took her to the vet and got shots, meds, antibiotics and the whole works done for her, then the owners said "she's too much trouble--you can just keep her if you want her"---yeah, like I was gonna give her back to them after all that anyway! HAH! 

So all you new puppy owners---BEWARE of cords that might look particularly appealing to those little puppy teeth---they have no idea what's inside those cords---they could get ZAPPED if they chew the wrong thing!

Paul,

That poor little Pom and those awful folks! One of my main worries has been Aka chewing wires. We have lots of things plugged in and I had tried to get everything up, tied up or covered up, at least I thought I did! So now it is back to the drawing board. Today I will be crawling around under furniture, etc seeing what cords are where since the little mouth has been here! And if I need to  I will be using cord covering such as PVC pipe cut in half to make runners for long cords that run along the walls, etc.

The real problem was, he chewed the speaker connector right at the back of the CPU, it is a tower on wheels right under my desk. I thought I had the back of the unit placed so he couldn't get to it, but I was wrong!

He is a little Houdini in addition to Jaws! He is crated when we are out so the rapscallion had to do this while I was sitting here at the computer and he was at my feet or in his bed right under the desk, but again, how he got behind the CPU still amazes me. And I didn't hear him back there!!!

Never underestimate the powers of a rattie for anything!!

Sadly they don't sell the camera cord that I need, that my sweet Amos destroyed.  I thought he also had torn up my old one, but it just has teeth marks.  I grabbed it away from him before the damage could be done.  Little RAT!

We have been lucky with Sonic came to us old enough, over the chewing.,  Sydney on the other hand:  three cellphone cords, four keyboard cables, two nylon leashes chewed in half(just done in the lst two months), three pair of safety glasses, one playstation controller cord, and hers and Sonic's safety harnesses for in the car.(She is part billy goat)  And all this was done when we were around her.  The cord to the keyboards were down even while she would lay on our feet while we were on the computer.

Second week after getting Bailey, after spending a lot of time prior to his arrival getting a "puppyfied" house in order, he struck.  We corral him to whatever room we're in via gates to limit the troubles but he managed to severe the mouse cord.  We were looking at some new pics of him and he snuck under and all it took was a second or two.    I was like, "What the..."  Other than that we've been lucky except a rubber strap from an errant flip-flop, in which he puked up little pink bits about 10 minutes later.   He'll still go after stuff such as sandals, socks, undergarments, and my wife's slippers and heels if left unchecked.
