I would more than likely do the same. But I guess that would all depend on what it is. We did dog sit for my mom & my aunt last year while they went to Alaska and my aunt has 3 poodles hyper oh my gosh. Her youngest one did damage the weather stripping on a new door that my husband and I had just put up.

He also ripped the backing off of a quilt that my grandmother had made for us and I am going to get my aunt to repair that she sews a lot. Weather stripping I just trimmed it up and repaired it the best I could. Now if he had destroyed a couch cushion or somthing like that she would have fixed it for me she also does does reapolstery(sp). So I didn't say anything to her.

But like I said it really depends on what it is. More than likely what kind of mood I'm in as well.

Sorry to ramble on.
