| Stir Crazy Baby! Okay -- my Archie is losing his mind, cooped up in the house. We've had very cold weather and I have not been taking him out as often for his walks because the minute he hits the outside, he starts shivering, even if I bundle him up. Soooo ... to entertain himself, he's been chewing on the baseboards and on the skirt of one of the chairs in the family room. He's never done this before. Also, he has taken to turning over his bed for entertainment, attacking it and biting the foam rubber underneath (see photos). There are only so many games of fetch I can play and so many Kongs I can distract him with. Any suggestions on how to keep him from going nuts until he can get outside for walkies? Thanks!

| I don't know,,,mine are going bonkers also. We've been playing fetch in the house every night. It gets kind of crazy when there's 3 chasing toys all over. Then the 2 girls will want the same toys and then they fight. Right now Sunnie's in the expen in a timeout. The good news is we're supposed to have some 50* temps next week. We're going to hit the trails. Spring is springing soon...keep telling yourself that.

Scatter his kibble at mealtime so that he has to search for it. Going for car rides also helps entertain Joey when we can't get out. Have fun!
