When Britney was a puppy she chewed up the end of a croc leather belt and the charger to my laptop.

Brooklyn has chewed a cell phone charger (or maybe two, I can't remember) and the antenna off of a cell phone.

Wow, yorkies seem to like cords and chargers! Someone needs to make a chewtoy shaped like one. Like everyone else, Alexis likes to chew on;

laptop, ipod, and cell phone charger cords.
Nomi hasn't destroyed anything yet, she prefers toys.

Jedi our lab, has been the expensive chewer. To date he has been responsible for eating the baseboard molding, chewing on the basement door, remote controls (cable and x box controller), and my husband's blue tooth headset.

Boobah was gnawing on an electric cord/air purifier. She was shocked, at the time she started to scream, managed to get her to the vets. She was kept overnight. I already posted this incident, but I'd thought i would let you know to keep all cords away. I was lucky she wasnt electrocuted! I call her the indestructible yorkie.

I dont know how expensive it was but... a mink teddy bear. It belonged to my Grandmother. My Grandmother (shes 87) lives with my Mom because my Mom takes care of her. My dog helped herself and ate it's face off. Oooops!

MissPinkBarbie · 07-10-2007, 01:24 PM

the most expensive, by far!...

my Louis Vuitton ''Manhattan GM" Bag [well over $2000].. I mean, since we got her, I basically banned her from the bedrooms (my bags are in the walk-in closet of the master bedroom). So I have always made sure she was no where near them. One day last month, I had to pee so bad, ran in the house, threw my bag on the sofa, and ran upstairs to the bathroom. I then took another minute to change shoes in the bedroom and came downstairs...All looked fine since Daisy was laying on a pillow looking like she was napping...So I continue to give her kisses and hold her and tell her how sorry I was for leaving her home all by herself..

an hour later, I took my bag upstairs to put it back in its place when I noticed all these ''bite marks'' on the tip of the strap [there's a belt buckle like strap on the front of the bag]..AARRGHH!!!

I ran downstairs and let her sniff my bag and yelled ''NO!!!!" Then she went in her home- her pen. Then I went back upstairs to calm down and my hubby came home and told me it could of been much worse if we had a bigger dog (which he did have before Daisy) or if she actually torn bits off of it.

I'm sure the warrenty covers the repair but it still upsets me everytime I see that bag!

AmyChristine · 07-10-2007, 02:24 PM

he chewed up daddy's sunglasses, thankfully he is like another child to us and we just got another pair. I thought that Kevin(copper's dad) was going to flip though. about $200 dollars to replace them! I don't let him near my handbags, yikes!!!

BLowry · 07-10-2007, 04:30 PM

Sadie chewed my Mom's hearing aid.

Dixon30 · 07-10-2007, 04:49 PM

Jack chewed my digital camera usb cord almost into, so now I can't post anymore pics till I get that replaced, but I couldn't get mad at him he is too cute

Madison and Jack love to chew on barbie dolls that my girls leave in the floor also( poor dolls they have really weird hands now)

WundrWmn · 07-10-2007, 04:53 PM

Yep I wanted a trunk for my coffee table, remember we're in a 5th wheel, anyway found a beautiful hand carved truck, and while we were out, she ate the corner nearly down to bare wood..... also the kitchen cabinet ends...my kitchen utility table leg....and anything she decides to gnaw on.....lol....she loves wood it seems.....

Chelsea'sMom · 07-10-2007, 05:06 PM

Besides chewing the norm...room molding, cabinets, cords, any kind of paper, (we dont need a paper shredder), socks, ALL stuffed toys, rugs, furniture, cell phone, and charger, window shutters, her plastic bowls, and her bedding, lawn sprinklers, even the handles on our freezer.......

....the best was our TV remote...not only chewed but buried in the back yard!
She opened it and took out the batteries too.

She was BARELY forgiven for that by dh.

Now that she is 2.5 yrs old, she is ALOT better, but we still crate her when we are gone from the house-NEVER TRUST A YORKIE ALONE-besides, she loves her crate, she goes in by herself to sleep during the day.

I have NEVER experienced a puppy to chew so many things, we always had poodles. NOW...I think poodles are boring, and YORKIES are awesome, she keeps us laughing.

reeses · 07-10-2007, 05:08 PM

My cell phone antenna!!! It has chew marks all over it. Lol.

missdeeliciouz · 07-10-2007, 05:10 PM

Heh, Bobby's a boy with good taste! He chewed on a white gold tennis bracelet & my mother's Chanel purse when she came to visit him! I've been sure to hide all my purses.. because besides Bobby, they're my 2nd love! Hahah..

xnatalie · 07-10-2007, 05:13 PM

mika never chews anything but my cat tore the carpet off the floor, and completely ruined a $2500 sofa. it was brand new

Gingergirlsmom · 07-10-2007, 05:19 PM

My brand new eyeglasses...thought she had a bone. $300.

The corner of our entertainment center.

Thankfully, miss Ginger grew out of this chewing stage at an early age, and if Bernie ever had a chewing stage it was before he came to live with us.
