It chews shoes, blankets, clothes, baskets, everything. All they do is yell at it, which apparently is not working. I hate to give her a quilt that I spend so many hours and money on to have it ruined by their dog, but it will be very obvious if I don't give her a quilt. She will be the last female in the family who doesn't have a quilt. What should I do? I am so conflicted.
I was faced with the same problem a couple of years ago 3 grand kids that have no respect for anything and I had made the others a quilt (These 3 were from the same family) like Sewnoma said I had to just give and let it go, I try not to think about where those quilts ended up, but I made all of our Grands a quilt and probably will never make them another
