this is such a redundant problem here at home. whenever we decide to keep our dog's little pups and they grow up, they always take our slippers, toy with it and then you can't see it no more, or its all destroyed! does that happen to any of you? or are all of your dogs trained? how do you train them not to do these things? thanks in advance

hide your slipper in the cupboard then i don't have any dog, but my cats usually play with some moving tail and i hide that moving tail from it so they can't play with it so i don't try hard to train it

Dogs are pretty hard to train when you're talking about "not to do this" or "not to do that.." I have a dog and he pooped on the dining table. Good thing he used the mat as his pooping place. We smack him from time to time but he never learns. He still does stupid things like eating his poop. Stupid dog.

Why not buy them some of their own toys? Or have you done that already? They need toys, lots of them. Then I think they will leave your slippers alone. Try hiding the slippers for awhile too until they are grown out of it and don't think of getting to them, store them in a draw instead. I hope it helps. These are playful pups you have and they really mean no harm, just like to play and not be bored.

I suggest you watch an TV episode"Dog Whisper". You may get what you need for training your dog. Good luck
