Okay...I know that many of you have dogs, and I really need some HELP!!!!! I'm going absolutely CRAZY!!!

We have a four month old mini rat terrier. He weighs 7 lbs, and is the sweetest, cutest little [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img] alive.

However...he is so naughty! He has been chewing everything in sight. I have gotten him a zillion chew toys, and he still chews, chews, chews!!! He chewed my DLS cord in half today, in three seconds flat! And this is the second time! I am constantly chasing him around the house, taking the strangest things away from him. He chewed the cord to my ANTIQUE haning lamp in two. He gnawed on one of my dinning room chairs...he's so bad!

He got a pen today, ( just as an example), and I tried to get it away from him, but he just ran all over the house. He'll start chewing on something, and I'll tell him no. He'll keep chewing, and just look at me. When I walk towards him, he drops whatever he has, and runs like heck.

I have a little carrier that he sleeps in at night, and that he travels in. I have resorted to putting him in there when I can't handle him anymore. He is too young, yet, to neuter.

Does anyone have any ideas? I love him, but I really want him to be good. His name is Bruiser and he looks a like the little dog in Legally Blonde.

I should also say that I am having problems house training him, too. He will tinkle outside, but for the most part thinks it's horrfying to do anything else outside! I think he's nuts. [img]graemlins/cry_smile.gif[/img]
