Well, it was fun. Spinning is great. My wool is lovely.
But, someone in my household had different plans.
Look at that dumb face… he doesn’t even know he did anything wrong.
I got home from work on Monday, and Ollie was happily chewing on his new chew toy.
Oh, wait. That’s not a chew toy. That’s one of my spinning wheel bobbins. Ollie, how did you get that? It was attached to my Lazy Kate, which has been in the living room for months and you’ve never looked at twice.
Oh, I see. You destroyed my Lazy Kate. Fun. Actually, it’s kind of impressive… Ollie fully chewed through a 1/2″ dowel rod in less than three hours. If I wasn’t so pissed, it would be funny.
So, I guess my spinning will have to wait for a bit, at least until I can get my hands on a couple new bobbins and a new Lazy Kate. At least he didn’t chew up my lovely wool.
Thanks, dog! You’re the best!

At least you get the clueless look. With cats- you get the look of contempt. The “You DARE take away MY new toy?” look.
Eeek…. I just cringed so much when I saw that!
Oh dear! We have a dog who has also caused damage by chewing! We still love them though don’t we:)
Of course. He’s the best!
Yikes! Sorry!
Uh oh! But he is adorable!!
Aaaaw.
