(TL
R) 7month old puppy, gets destructive if bowls are empty keep ~10galons of water for her, cannot leave outside because neighbors have a hyper aggressive "service dog". Gets plenty of outdoor time, plenty of toys, already destroyed indoor kennel, is literally eating my house, current solution is locking her in hallway but she is too dafty to understand why. What are some solutions to solve this problem before she eats a hole in the wall already has 4 and tries chewing through the electric cables and fries herself like a tatertot. Furniture can be reupholstered that's w.e.
So my puppy Bella(trix) (half pit, half blue heeler ~7months old) has always gotten angry when any of her bowls are empty, when she was just a few months old she would pick up her bowls and throw them around. But now she has taken to eating the furniture. I normally have to have three water bowls for her grand total of like 10 gallons of water, i always refresh her water every morning and when I get home, dummy is a water dog and loves playing in her water, placed a rubber tub under her bowls to prevent water damage to my house, and spent a couple of weeks working with her to not do it on the inside bowls, dont really care about the outside water she has a 2'x4'x6" stock tank with a ballast, but, the neighbors to the front has their daughter living with them now and she has a "licensed service dog" I put that in quotes because this pit bull of hers has already rushed the fence a couple of times and was full aggression twords my dogs (chaweenie named Padmé she is a lover not a fighter and their small dogs already snipped her through the fence) so I can't just leave them alone in the yard without having to worry that this "licensed service dog" is going to attack my dogs while I am at work and I had to surrender my sweetheart of a pit bull to a no kill shelter because he was being aggressive towards their little dogs after the snipped my little ones (had two chaweenies one passed from birth complications). She already ate the plastic bowls I had because they were empty so I can only use metal ones. I had an indoor kennel for her but she is a stocky brute and tore that appart, not going to bother buying another one just for her to eat it again. She has plenty of toys rings, ropes, puzzles, balls, stuffed animals with sensatory bits in it, and she has Padmé to play with gets 1hr outside time in the morning and gets to come and go in the evenings (under close supervision because I don't trust that "service dog", so its not that she is bored by any means. And she is otherwise fine if the bowls aren't empty, but, here in Texas the cold spell is mostly over and she is just slurping the water down again and takes her frustration out on my furniture, both new love seats look like they have been through a tornado, my sofa is nothing but the frame, my hardwood vintage table is getting whittled and dare I forget about the four holes she put in the walls (one of which she is still expanding no matter how many times I have patched it. Please help me come up with other solutions to deal with this than sitting her down in the mess and asking her what it is and why the insides of my furniture is on the outside, like, she knows she beansed it because she does the guilty dog thing the moment I get home from work or even just checking the mail and stents in puppy jail (locking her in the hallway) doesn't do anything.
