Well...he appears to have taken it on board as far as stripping the wallpaper goes, though usually puppehs do the thing they've stopped doing a short while after you notice they've stopped doing it so...who knows? :p
Poor babe's teething again so it's all intensified a little.
Today he discovered two wonderful new taste sensations in my quest to alleviate his discomfort: ice cubes (oh very nice. We liiiike ice. Not only is it cold on the old gums, but it skitters about the floor in a most satisfying manner) and his first paddywack, which went down well, took quite a while to get through and seemed to thoroughly occupy his attention for almost half an hour.
I have ordered from an online supplier an antler chew in attempt to give hime something as satisfying as the sidetable leg (he's almost though it, seriously, I've had to turn it around so if the leg gives the lamp will fall in towards the wall rather than out onto Carrot). And also wrapped his solid rubber teething toy in kitchen roll and stuck it in the freezer for half an hour. That also went down quite well.
