palonghorn No, I don't mean just let him chew, when he starts to go towards the tree, say his name and say no, then if he stops even for a second, give him one of his toys and praise him, he will start to get the idea. There are some breeds that are 'chewers' more so...

So how did you "ring in" this past new year? Did you do it traditionally? My wife and I had always toasted the new year with champagne, until last year. Money was a little tight so we weren't able to afford our champagne last...

nengs10 Yes, we will all bid farewell to year 2007. It is hard for me to say goodbye to this very memorable year. This is really the best year so far in my life here on earth. 2007 has brought me ups and downs. But above all, successes have overpowered those trials I...
