+Puppy Dawg Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Has anyone had their dog chew on their GPSr? Quote
+carleenp Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Not yet. But I haven't exactly given the dogs a chance to do so. Quote
+TheAlabamaRambler Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 Not a GPS, but I have had that happen to a TB. Northern Exposure was on its way home from the Arctic Circle when it got stuck in the inventory of the last logger. I waited a few months then asked him to move it along and he told me sorry, his dog liked it for a chew toy and he wasn't going to take it away from him! Quote
knowschad Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 No, but if that dog is the the one in your avatar, good luck, buddy! Quote
+uxorious Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 My dogs don't seem to be hungry for my GPSr, but my cat would love to kill this thing that has a tail (wrist strap.) hanging off the table. He has pulled it off the counter and off the table a couple times. Now I have to be sure to remember to set it so the wrist strap is not temptingly hanging off the edge. Quote
+Jeep4two Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Nope - but my 8 lb. cat recently ate a Dachshund. Does that count? Quote
+SaltercreaseRangers Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 She got to the satellite remote control (£25) before the GPS (£220) so I'm more careful now Quote
+jbar Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) My St Bernard ate my Colorado. Completely distroyed it. He has also gotten ear phones and a bluetooth head set. I try not to leave anything around for him to get into. Edited July 22, 2009 by jbar Quote
+joukkusisu Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 No, but if that dog is the the one in your avatar, good luck, buddy! I wouldn't want to mess with your avatar either. I get the sense that dog knows more than me. Quote
+jbar Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 No thats the small one. Barkus the St Bernard is a year old and 150lbs. He's a great dog, his only flaw is he likes to chew. If electronics get in the way .... I keep telling the kids not to leave anything around but everything is within reach for him. He doesn't need to jump up. Quote
vagabond Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 The one to the left of here chewed my wifi card out of my old HP laptop one night Quote
+GPS Guy Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Has anyone had their dog chew on their GPSr? Yes. I used to throw my Garmin 76S down the trail so Geo Kobi could run after it and retrieve it. He would grip it by the edges for the most part, but I would take it back if he put a tooth on the screen. It still works great. I still use it when I set up a new cache, as it will average a waypoint, unlike the Colorado I upgraded to. On those occasions, I will still give it a toss for Kobi. He manages to sniff out the occasional cache, even without a GPSr. Quote
knowschad Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 My St Bernard ate my Colorado. Completely distroyed it. He has also gotten ear phones and a bluetooth head set. Has his sense of direction improved? Now he'll know just where to go with that barrel of brandy! Quote
