Remember this guy?
Look what happened to him.
If only Abbot and Costello had known that small terriers can destroy mummies, they may have lived much happier lives.
When Geordie was younger, he destroyed stuffed toys all the time. It seemed the greater his social anxiety, the more toys he tore up. Toby has been pretty gentle with his stuffed toys and still has most of them.
On this particular day he was admonished to “SHUT UP ALREADY!!!” after barking at the school bus. Evidently his pride was wounded, and Mummy Loofah paid the price. I suppose that until now, Toby lived such a perfect life without getting into trouble that he didn’t need to destroy his toys.
Better watch out, Sextopus.

Love his response to being told to be quiet.
At least he took out his frustrations on the toy and not me.
I would have done the same thing, Toby. Today, for the first time since puppyhood, I dug in mom’s garden. She was not happy.
Ooh, do you want to borrow a stuffy, Unca Pip?
For just a moment I wondered about “Sextopus.”
At least it never joined the ranks of Peppermint and Humpry Kitty.
Ha ha ha!! Toby, get ’em!!
Oh I got ’em all right. That will teach Mommy not to yell at me! – Toby
