Ouch! Any other time it would have been some cheapo JL or POS that you wouldn't find for a day or so and the dog wouldn't have either. :freak: rr

Your dog has good taste. No doubt there was Grey Poupon nearby...

Yeah, more like "grey poop on" the front lawn in a couple of days. Man those scooby snacks are gettin expensive. I guess you can always get another dog.

Sorry to hear about your car :( . But I am coming to the defense of the dog. I am a dog owner myself and unfortunately your dog was just "being a dog".
As you and I both know dogs will chew things we don't want them to. I hope you're not really thinking of getting a new dog. My dog has taken to chewing the ornaments on the lower part of the X-mas tree.
Just remember to get your dogs their own cars (toys) to chew on.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all.
Jerry

im not really pissed at the dog. i understand dogs chew. i am just annoyed the episode happened. the dog need not fear anymore than the cursing that accompanied finding the car.

How bout a pic. I know the sick feeling your feeling, but that kind of CAR-nage should be shared. Sorry bout the loss. :(

OUCH! Man that's rough. Dogs like to chew things, sucks but its what they do. I love my dog regardless of what he does. :)

Sorry about your car, mate. Any parts salvagable?
Is your dog ok? I hope it did not swallow any of the plastic bits that may have come off.

Mike - any chance you can use the damage as a custom body style? Like Neal's Rat Rods?
