I figure he's chewed up about three and a half times his original purchase price in our possessions now. I didn't think he'd live this long -- and it's not for my lack of trying, either. SWMBO has had to intervene a number of times to preserve his safety.

He was pretty cute last December. Baby, look at him now. Cairn terriers are supposed to weigh about 13-15 pounds when fully grown. Ours weighs over 22 pounds right now. Yes, he loves his treats (We use soft-kibble dog food as treats), but he is solid muscle. And that can cause some problems. Uh, on top of what appears to be 'normal' cairn behaviors, that is. *sigh* At least he's housebroken, now.
