How do I stop my dog destroying everything when I am not home? General Dog Discussions
I have a 10 Month old Aussie Bulldog. I am away from home for 8 hours a day and she is on her own. When I am away she is eating/destroying anything she can find and reach. She also forces her way through a locked cat door into the house and will run amok inside and tear up magazines, pillows etc.She has more dog toys than any other dog I know. I have tried ignoring her for a while when I get home, saying NO when I catch her but the problem is that she is perfectly behaved when we are at home. she gets plenty of exercise too (thowing balls etc.)HELP. I am worried she will get stuck in the cat door and be there all day half in, half out!Thanks for all the answers. I would never give my dog an electric shock!! And to be quite honest I don't like the idea of confining her to a small space for 8 hours at a time. Is this humane?She has 2 Kong toys. Always plenty for her to doOh and by the way an Aussie Bulldog or an Australian Bulldog is bred from British Bulldogs. They have alot of the health problems bred out. Great dog!
