Please meet Toto .... evidently the only Yorkie to never shread a pad!! Truly she hasn't ... and I know it just has to be "dumb luck"!! I have heard over & over about pad shredding, but I swear she has never done it. She did go through a period when she was a tiny little girl and she would drag it out of her X-pen! Never tore it, just moved it!! The only thing we did to stop this was bought one of those little frames with the red/yellow flower thing on each corner ... she couldn't get the frame out of the pen so she gave up on dragging!! One thing we did do from "day one" ... was make sure she always had a supply of "chewing" things handy! Every time she tried to do anything with that mouth instead of eat, we stuck something "chewable" in her mouth. Didn't take her long and when she got that chew urge, she would dig through her toys and find the proper thing to chew on ... still does!! Another "truth" about Toto [2 yrs. old], she has never, ever chewed on anything that doesn't belong to her and never destroyed any of her things .... with the exception of her all time favorite, a little scrap of paper!! That's her favorite "no-no thing" and you accidentally drop a piece, you better be real fast to grab it up ... the Toto "2 second rule applies"!!
