Question:

Why is my dog eating fabric?

I have a 2 year old Queensland HeelerHe is a professionally trained cattle and sheep hearding dogHe is with my husband and I all day, between 5 and 9 hours a day, on our horse farmHe also has a obsession with fabricUnderwear (mine and my husbands), bath towels, blankets, pants, bed sheets, his own bed and that's itHe has bones, and chew toys and toysHe is rarely left alone for more than an hour at a timeI don't see how he could be acting out, see as how he gets ample exercise, uses his pea brain while hearding, and gets as much affection as my 9 year old stepdaughterThis is getting to be an expensive habitHe has destroyed thousands of dollars of jeans, bed sheets and down comfortersHe only does this at night when no one is lookingI show him what he has done and he knows he did a bad thingNo discipline seems to get through to him! Please help!

Answer:

I can't think of a tidy wayCrochet the design and then sew it on.
My dog loves the batting that is in comforters and stuffed animalshe will dig and tear at it until he gets all of it outSo our solution was, he does not get anything with batting in itIs there a way that you can eliminate contact with material? As for lacking in diet, nothing that would cause a dog to want to eat fabricask your vetBest of Luck
