The sad thing is that these stories are (loosely) based in truth. ROFLMAO.
One time when we had a litter of 11 pups, they threw a midnight party and they obliterated a plant and pulled potting soil, stems, and posts onto the porch where they were. These were 6 week puppies! Here are 2 pics of the destruction.
These pics were first thing. Note there is puppy poo in there, but the small, dark stuff is all soil! The towels were for bedding. They also pulled a push broom onto the porch and chewed on it.
