It is amazing to me that dogs are so much like people. They may look similar, but they sure are different. My Springers ate beds, not chewed, ripped apart and ate them. Our current dogs have never even chewed on any of their beds, but will rip a comforter, sheet, blanket, etc. into long thin strips, pull out all the stuffing if there is any and carry it through the house, so it is scattered everywhere. Cody came to me, when I adopted him, with a comforter. It is the only one I can put down and know that it will not be touched, other than to lay on. I am so glad your boy is settling in better.
