Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Ugh so this weekend I went to new jersey for my uncles birthday party, so my fiance was home with Scarlet and the cat..Well on the 2nd day he tells me that Scarlet [in her attempt to try and get out of her crate] had rubbed the corners of the crate so hard against the wall that it made 2 huge indents...i'm thinking oh great there goes our security deposit..but he tells me not to worry it doesnt look like something a little spackle wont fix..So i think sweet ! our security deposit is safe...ohh no he saved the worst news for last...Scarlet had succeeded in unhinging the locks of the crate and in an attempt to dig out of the room under the door ripped up a good foot and a half of carpet !!!!! Mad Mad Mad ..in our lease it says that if any of the carpet is damaged we have to pay to get the entire carpet for the apartment REPLACED ! i pale he keeps telling me not to worry but I'm just about on the verge of a breakdown !

She has a metal cage.. We have like a 1000 something security deposit AND a 200 dollar pet deposit so i'm prayyyying that they take it out of that..i mean they already have my money I'd rather them take that than have to try and come up with the expenses at a moments notice..glad to know Scarlets not the only carpet hater

That's not too horrible, although I'm sure you'll have a lot more piece of mind once you know how they will handle it. My sisters pit bull puppy ripped up the carpet in her rental home and when they stuck the puppy in the bathroom it proceeded to rip up all the vinyl flooring in the bathroom too. Shocked I think I'm lucky, my boy sticks to clothes, shoes, dog beds and furniture...if that's what you can call lucky. Neutral

I was just sooo angry because she's never done anything that destructive ...until now..of course she is only 4 months ...so one can only hope that this is the end of her terror..but its probably only the beginning lol

I hate to say it, but it's probably only beginning. She's not a teenager yet. I would start working on crate training and positive association NOW before it get worse.

We're replacing the carpet in our apartment/rental home right now because Hailey dug up the carpet when we left her crated in the room with Koda. We're also replacing the living room and hallway from destruction and simple pulls from running around the place.

I feel like these are typical husky owner woes... I'm sorry that might not be very reassuring!
