You obviously don't own a dawg or have any children.

It's kind of funny, I used to have a dog that was a chewing machine. I
got him on April 15th of 1985, and that night, I insanely bought a new
car! In the first week, he ate a hunk of carpet about 12"x18", and the
sound deadener sheet under it(asphalt and recycled fibers), the door
panel on the back rear door and he also chewed off the door handle too,
along with the radio wiring when the original radio died and I was
waiting for the replacement. He ate furniture, carpet, wall trim, a door
edge in the house, and housebreaking took forever. Finally, after
destroying a lot of stuff, he finally stopped, and housebreaking
followed soon after. It took about a year to get him to always poop
outside!

I guess most people would have gotten rid of him, but he turned out to
be my favorite dog of all, and lived to 14.5 years. I got a break with
the two I have now, they chewed about 3 days, and didn't have the jaw
power the last one did. Housebreaking took a week..

But he never, ever touched one of my radios, or the half dozen coaxes
that he could get to, or the power cords. My cat found out that biting a
live power cord isn't fun. It knocked him across the room and he
screamed louder than I thought he possibly could. Other than some minor
burns on his mouth, he was fine, but he never bit a cord again! If you
have ever had the "Pulp Tester" at the dentist, you can imagine what it
must have felt like.

They didn't need to use a drill in the movie "Marathon Man", the pulp
tester was worse, and left no marks! I have had it twice, and I came
very close to kicking the Dentist's ass when he touched it to the tooth
a second time. The pulp tester is used to see if a tooth is still alive,
and if it is, it's unbelievable. I've had some 3rd degree burns on my
right hand (making my own fireworks, DUMB!!), and it was a picnic
compared to the pulp tester. Nothing I have ever felt has come close to
the pulp tester for sheer pain. At least it only lasts a second or so..

A friend thought I was BSing about it until he fell and knocked three of
his teeth loose. He didn't go to the Dentist until three days later, and
he found out the meaning of pain! LOL, now he knows I wasn't
exaggerating!
