Ton is not a puppy but still chewing everything

I am writing this at 11pm because Ton just chew the corner of my good sofa again and I am too tired to be angry. Almost. We live in Jomtien, condo 7th floor, the sea breeze is nice but the dog is a menace.

Ton is 3 years 8 months. Everyone tell me he should be calm by now, the vet, my sister, the lady at the grooming... nobody told me he will chew my shoes, the TV remote, a whole plastic flower pot, and yesterday the phone charger. The charger cable is in the middle of the carpet now like a crime scene.

Last month the vet look inside his mouth and find one tooth cracked. Poodle has very nice teeth but he is also very stress. She say it is common when dog chew hard things, like the antler bone that I buy from the pet shop at the mall. Cracked tooth need care, she give him antibiotic for 5 days and also say stop the bone. I felt so bad, Ton is so sad without his bone, he just stare at me from the bed.

So now I give him frozen carrot and the rubber ball in the freezer. Not perfect. He still find the shoes. I bought one of those crates with the mesh, it help a little when I am at work. The condo juristic office complained about the noise when he cry in the crate, so I need to talk to the security guy every morning. That is another story.

My husband say we need a bigger dog bed for the living room, maybe the chewing will go down if he is comfortable. I do not know. I am also not sure if the rainy season make him more bored because we cannot walk on the beach at 5pm like before. The rain come every afternoon now.

Anyway, Ton is still the best boy when he is sleeping on my feet, which is the only time he is quiet. Tomorrow I will put all the shoes in the cupboard and then he will find the cupboard door.
