LOL. This is our first Christmas with the dog, although we've had a cat for past Christmas. My wife is terrified that the dog will eat her ornaments. She delayed decorating the tree, and when she finally did, it looks like this:

@BassWrangler pretty tree.

16 years ago today Our Golden Retriever "Beau" had enough with this guy.
 

Sorry...

That darn Beau:
Tales from past Holidays:

He must have snapped today... is all I can figure
out. He hated him anyway. I guess I should have
placed poor Santa out of Beau's reach, instead of
eye level on the coffee table. I suppose the
combination of temptation and loathing was too
much. Not to mention the jolly little fatman would break
into song with any loud external sound or a nudge.
He was one of those vibrating, rock Santa's that
would belt out "Santa Claus is coming to Town"
behind a loud guitar rock theme. Beau would poke
him in the belly with his nose just enough to set
off the player. Then he would back up, and bark
and growl until Santa stopped spinning and singing.

Red and white fuzz, a pair of tiny plastic Raybans,
and a disemboweled voicebox is all that is left.

I'm surprised you didn't chew him up, @The Ghost.

They took all the trees
Put 'em in a tree museum 
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em

@RoosGirl

This tree is one of those artificial ones. A GE, IIRC. Haven't had a real tree since I saw that fire study video showing how quickly a room becomes fully engulfed after a tree catches fire.

I love this story!  Poor dog, I am sure it was too much.  Out dog hates remote control helicopters.  Some things are just more than a dog can bear.

He never chewed anything in the house in his whole life. Outside he got his fiber by chewing sticks and outdoor stuff.  But boy,  he really hated that damn Santa!

@Freya, you have to watch this. It's some lady with a Border Collie on one of those TV talent shows. Just amazing.

Had cats all my life, but have a dog now. Way more interactive pet.

I have a soft spot for black and white dogs.  Border Collies are so trainable.  I could watch this kind of video all day.
