When Pixie was a puppy she wrecked our brand new sofa after a week, it had massive holes in the cushions and on the arms, she is now 5 and Rupert is 4 and they still try it, i just don't leave them on there own in the same room as the sofa they get shut in he kitchen if i have to go out.

They have dug a hole in the old sofa we used in the conservatory which they were allowed on all the time when left alone :angry: but they don't attempt it with our leather ones but they have restricted access to the lounge and it's a no go area if we are not home.

)My 14 yo lurcher is an ardent carpet-digger. So far we've kept her off the sofas, but given a rash Christmas sales decision to have a thick hide leather one from DFS, I suspect that may be short-term.
must be a sight-hound thing? :b
if we had space, I'd get her a sofa of her own. Going for a squishy bed instead if I can find one.

Yep - Bluebell digs, she doesn't have access to the sofa unless I'm here to 'bark' at her!
