    Default Customer: Wheres my Restore? Me: The dog ate it

    Took my son to hockey this morning, and as we returned home and I walked in my door, surprisingly I was not greeted by my happy dog -- He immediately ran into his crate. I knew something was up because he already knew he was in trouble, so, after a few minutes, I found this little pile of scraps scattered around my living room floor...

    My dog ate $18 worth of horn

    luckily they were just rough cuts off the bandsaw..

    LOL

    /me starts over...

    Lucky it wasn't something irreplaceable like original scales you were restoring.

    That's sad. Luckily there wasn't a sharp razor attached to those scales!

    This reminds me of the time I had to leave my golden retriever inside the house while I went to work because he had just had surgery and it was raining outside. I returned home to a similar greeting as you and then found he had eaten my couch! The frame was still there but the fabric and stuffing was scattered all over the living room.

    Let the dog try the same thing with the greaseless!

    You know you can't really be mad at the dog, I mean it's bone right

    Be sure to keep the polising compound out of his reach. Dogs love the grease based stuff, and it does not work very well after it goes through the dog.

    Back when I collected straights but didn't shave with them I bought this W&B frameback on ebay. I opened the box and took it out of the bubble wrap and saw that the end was badly damaged. I was really angry as I wanted the razor and the scales had looked so good in the description. I emailed the seller and described it as being 'chewed up'. He emailed back and told me he was giving me a full refund.

    When I used the term chewed up he said he remembered that his puppy had gotten into the items he was packing. He didn't realize the razor was damaged because it had already been bubble wrapped. He told me to dispose of it as I saw fit. I threw it in a drawer for a long time. Finally got it out and honed it and it turned out to be a good shaver.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Exactly my thought as well.

    I was cutting a wedge once out of scrap of bone and my dog got really exited. Must have been the dust in the air! I locked him out for health and safety reasons
