My sister has this prob with her bull terrier, She is walked god knows how many times aday, She keeps her occupied by plays with her a good few times for a short time in the garden and she has now invested in the kong which does keep her occupied for ashort time aswell, Ontop of other chew treats like rawhide etc.
But you cannot put it down to a dog not getting walked enough, That could be one of the reasons for someone else but it was'nt one of the reasons for my sisters bully, She is just plain and simple a destructive active bully, And no matter what she does with that dog she just never seems to tire.

I took my sisters dog out with me for the day for 6 hours, Walking there and letting her run all the wile we was there, Walking back laters aswell, I gave her back to my sister, and not even 10 mins later she was up again looking for something to wreck.

Now wtf can that be all about?

My dogs don't do it yet they are treated exactly the same as my sisters?
In all the years of owning bullys i have never in my life seen one so active as this one.

I know what your saying and do agree to a point,but you watch the dog whisper/Ceasar millan on tv and he will tell most dog owners thats complaining about Destructive Behaviour At Home,that they dont walk there dogs enough and this is one of the main cause of Destructive Behaviour I agree with him ! Imagine how bad your sisters dog would be if it didnt get walked enough

True, Looking at it from that point of view i can see your point.
Bloody ell tho..If my sisters walks her anymore then she does, She would be out all day long lol.

Great post!
I was going to say that there can be a number of factors why dogs are distructive.
Food,Excercise,Seperation anxiety etc,so I would look at the whole picture not just the excercise the dog gets.

TY
My staffy was distructive many years ago in her younger years because of separation, I took her everywhere with me and when i had to leave her on her own for like shop trips and doing some work ect she would wreck bigtime, She ate a carpet, she swang of my curtains, she ate my bathroom door halfway up ( it looked like a barn door lol ) she wreck my kitchen cupboards she ate my fire surround and the list goes on, All in a short space of time on different accations
I was told to try separate myself from her for longer periods of time and not take her everywhere with me..i must say..it worked over time, She did get out of it Thank truck
