Sooo, I'm currently overrun with dogs. I have four myself, and I'm also babysitting my friend's English Mastiff. One of mine is a Great Dane and the other three are rescues. I have a feral coyote-shepherd-something else mix and another that has some sort of heeler in her. Then there's the ever hyper part lab who was rescued from a meth lab that burned down. I just tell people that she is a meth lab when asked what kind of dog she is.
Aside from dogs, I also have some unbucked and unsplit plum and peach, a decent pile of apple, a huge pile of oak and a small pile of cherry that I use for smoking. Well, the Mastiff and the meth lab like to chew on things. What do they like? Apparently they like cherry, and they can shred a stick of it pretty quick. I also have to question what copious quantities of Mastiff slobber on rescued cherry does to the quality of smoke! Why do they like to pick the wood which I have the least amount of? I wouldn't be happy if they were chewing on the oak, but at least I have a stack of it that is over 5' tall and I still have 4 cords of woodcutting permit left. I have an apple tree that I prune, I had to take my neighbor's out and kept the wood and I have another neighbor with an orchard. The supply on that is decent. The cherry is limited to what I get to prune off of my tree. Or they could chew on my giant pile of sycamore and elm and I wouldn't care one bit.
Unfortunately, threatening to wok the dog doesn't work on them.
