Hey the Local Pet store told me how to keep Lizzie from shredding our gifts
while they are under the tree.
Put Vinegar on some towels and lay them around the bottom of the gifts and once they smell it they will leave them alone.
Just make sure the towels are not soaking wet, just damp so they dont get
all over your floor or gifts.
We tried it yesterday and the first time she went over she sneezed her head off and now she is avoiding it like the plague !
My wife even put Vinegar rags over near the paper towel rack and for the first time they are safe ! She really doesnt like the smell ! WoooWhoo !
Thought Id share !!!!
My house smells really good with the Pine/ Vinegar but they gifts are still wrapped !

Hi Cathy
Yes she really does keep us on our toes ! We are wondering when she is going to settle down and be a lap dog.....is it Just going to happen one day ?
You know like when a Caterpiller turns into Butterfly ???? One day is Lizzie going to turn into a Maltese ???
For a 5 pound dog she creates 10 pounds of trouble :)
Im Glad your laughing.....I wish my wife was !!!
Im putting up another Video of her running around the living room this morning.....its hard to keep the camera on her.

Awwwww she is just being a happy puppy how sweet she is. Enjoy her, as soon all her antics will be a distant memory and you will miss them and then you will be saying "remember when" ;) :)

Lizzie is so cute. My daughter's yorkie didn't shred the gift but he decided to mark it in another way when he was here the other day. It was a gift for my nine year old-so we told her her cookies may taste a little funny.

Yes that would be an interesting Video !!! I dont know how we could keep the camera on the 2 of them.
Next time Elizabeth goes south she can stop and give Zoe a play date with lizzie....

I would love to see that too. They look and act like sisters, so I can imagine they would be very sweet together.:D

Sweet indeed but swifter than the wind! They would wear each other out having the time of their life. I just don't think you can keep the camera focused on them both.:D

It would be nice to see the same pose picture of them posted next to each other to see just how much they look alike! That would really be cool!!

John and I will have to compare photos of or kids (or try to re-enact one of the other's photos anyway). I love John's avatar photo of Lizzie, but Zoe never lays like that. He legs are spread out behind her (Marco says it looks like a frog). She rarely lays on her side now that she's older.

Brandy lays like Zo zo, like a frog. Kallie lays upside down and Toby curls up into a little ball. Guess they all lay what makes them feel comfy!:)

You know John, when a dog lays on its back with all paws straight up in the air it means they are completely comfortable and safe in their surroundings. She doen't have a care in the world when she's like that. You have done a wonderful job with Lizzie and she's telling or showing you just how much she trusts you.
Also, about the vinegar thing. It is great for cleaning up the area on the floor when they have a mistake and pee. The vinegar will keep them from finding that spot again and having a pee episode.
