My present 6 year old dog did have one expensive episode as a puppy. 2 Library Books had to be paid for around $60.00 but it was the Reading glasses on top of them that proved really expensive as she ate them plus the emergency trip to the vet as she swallowed the lenses. All up pretty expensive.

No although I did have my Lab' chew the fly of a tent -- a little-- that I had up to air b5 putting it away

Ha Ha left alone and a pup will go wandering to find entertainment.

If you work and leave him or her alone - best to get 2 dogs - and fit a doggie door to outside so can play etc - usually enough

A bored and lonely dog can cause havoc.

Labs are lovely dogs but do have a rep to cause mischief!

By the look of the window, its an apartment.

Large dogs need a lot of exercise, and there are many things you can do nowdays to keep them busy.

Pet sitters, creche, etc.,

Been there, done that, its not the dogs fault.
