| Boo Bah Just Ate Through Another Wire Im telling you, she is something else! I thought I had put away all wires from boo bah, but she managed to find one. Luckily it was disconnected and behind the sofa. I found it when I was vacuuming. Oh, well, I just praise God she didnt get hurt. Now Im really wire conscious! She does stuff behind my back, when Im not looking, of course!

| Boo Bah sure does like wires doesn't she? I think someone else posted about something you can get to cover your wire cords so they can't eat them. Boo Bah: No More Wire Cords ( Just like in that movie Mommie Dearest when she says: No More Wire Hangers ).

| I really need to find these covers. Zoey chewed through the cord on my heating pad and It was plugged in. I am lucky she was not killed. It was all exposed wires when I found it. I felt like a really bad mom.

| Mommie Dearest Yep, just like in the movie, no more wires! I have to keep the carpets vacuumed daily because she sniffs and snorts at everything, every nook and crany. She has toys up to the hilt but some of them she has torn to shreds. Right now Im taking her to the park so she can get some fresh air!

| wire chewers And when I first got boo bah, I didnt know they were wire chewers!!I know she is very nosey, wants to know what's going on 24/7. Follows my every footstep and then zooms through the house! I just donated through this website so I could make my avitar larger. However, I asked a couple of members to help but they havent responded yet. Maybe they are at work!

| Did you try giving her a bully stick? It's working for Kingston. He's still on his first one. After a good chewing session. I cut off the the tip for the next day. He's been working on this one since Wednesday. It also tires him out. He takes a nap right after. |

| Oh and as for the wires, did you try putting deoderant on it? I did that because Kingston started to chew the corners of my coffee table, but I put it on and he hasn't chewed that spot since. |

| OMG...I feel all yall's pain! Izzy has now successfully chewed through our camera usb cord ($45), phone charger ($25) and Computer charger ($??). Do you think breeders should just tack on the extra charges like that that will happen inevitably when they sell yorkies??? Not to mention almost all my flip-flops had to be replaced.

| Sneaky little buggers these guys are I am glad she wasn't hurt, but if she were to swallow a piece of the plastic or wire, it could hurt her tummy Maybe a nice xpen, for when you can't watch her, would help to keep her out of trouble

| Please watch them carefully! I have friends whose 3 mo old pug chewed thru a lamp cord and was electrocuted. They were devastated. These little guys are sooooo fast and can get in trouble in the blink of an eye.

| Oh dear! I read before somewhere here that he chewed on a wire! At least he's alright this time! They always find something! whether it be a wire, bits of non-foods on the floor, dust balls, ugh! Drives me insane! I just finish telling hubby this morning how Daisy eats any and everythingshe finds on the floor and how our neighbor's maltese will sniff something on the floor and leave it alone if it's not food. How I only wish my Daisy would do that! Hubby continues to tell me "she'll grow out of it..."
