The tiny Chihuahua is the second most destructive dog you can have in your home, Will and Guy have discovered, behind the Great Dane.
We found that a recent survey indicates that the 'Little and Large' of the canine world can cause more damage than any other breed. Apparently, in its lifetime, the average Chihuahua causes £638 [approx. $1,130 USD] worth of damage, just £30 less than its big cousin. The dogs often soil carpets, scratch doors, chew sofas and break ornaments.

Another surprise inclusion on the league table of mischievous mutts is the Dachshund. These 'sausage dogs' cause an average £444 [approx. $785 USD] of damage during their lives.

On the other hand, we have been told by veterinary friends that the pug and the huge St Bernard are the least destructive breeds, the former tending to be better behaved and more easily trained, the latter more gentle and stable in nature.

I had a Boxer that ate a large chunk of our couch when we weren't home. She was fine, but the couch was toast. That dog cost way more than $1,130 worth of damage in her life! But she was still my most favorite. Sweetest dog I've ever had.

Oh heavens, I just got DGD a mini dachshund for her birthday. ( she lives with me. ) I guess I better start putting some money back to pay for the damages. Maybe because he is a mini the damage will be less. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
