Chew on this
It's 7 a.m. and you roll out of bed. Stumbling to the bathroom, you find your favorite pair of sneakers shredded on the living room floor. As you slept, Fido took his revenge. Rhonda, assistant at the Animal Hospital of Lawrence, says whether frustrated, teething or just bored, all dogs chew. Many who chew from boredom just need something to keep them busy. Pet store toys are fun, but expensive.
And if your dog is like mine, the toy rarely makes it through the door before
its lying in pieces. To save money, try making your own.
Although the knot-in-a-sock is always popular, you can spice it up. Tightly braid three washed dishtowels and secure the ends with a rope or strip of fabric. Rhonda says to avoid loose strings that can be ingested and always watch your dog while playing. She also suggests taking any toy away from your dog when you're not playing to avoid unwanted injuries.

You got a new laser level for Christmas so you had to try it out. After leveling, hammering, hanging and re-hanging, you are left with holes all over your walls — holes that you know your landlord won't be happy about. Well, here's the fix. You can use white toothpaste to fill the nail holes in your walls, according to www.ehow.com. Put a small amount of toothpaste on your finger and working it into the hole for a temporary fix. Now maybe your walls won't look like you missed a dartboard a few too many times.
