Public Service Announcement: Dogs love to chew

After giving up all hope of ever seeing my security deposit again, I have learned a valuable lesson.   If you own a Shiba Inu, it is not good enough to use baby gates to lock him in the kitchen; these dogs love to chew.  They will eat anything, including things they shouldn’t, like your baseboards.  I took this route in order to keep the dog from urinating on my carpet.  I have since discovered that this was a bad move.  The correct response would have been to get a exercise pen (about 50$) along with an strip of linoleum (about 20$)  to protect the carpet; this is cheaper in the long run.   So learn from my cautionary tale, and get an exercise pen for your dog.
