LMAO You definately have several valid points, but I think the loose connection on the starter and the faulty charger were the issue, all seems right in the world again.

Whew, that was a close one, Chief...

If you still decide to go, can I have the cool dog? He's bear food out there...

We have to many more days like today and he may be looking for a new home, this chewing stuff up has got to stop. I got an emergency call and had to rush out of the house and in the two hours I was gone he chewed the loops off my best pair of cowboy boots and was in hiding when I got home.

Any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: I SERVED IN THE UNITED STATES NAVY. John F. Kennedy Aug. 1963

Can't you just pull them up by the tassles?

You can pull it's teeth...problem solved.

If your boots look like those your dog did you a favor.

The chewing is his way of showing anxiety. He's afraid of being left behind. You'll have to reinforce that you will be back. Tell him you're leaving and will be back.Leave for a few minutes, and praise him if he didn't chew up anything while you were out. Extend the time away over a period of time (couple of weeks). That should cure the problem. My Lab used to do that to anything that I touched when I left. The living room looked liked it snowed inside when he tore up any and all papers, magazines, books he could find. He ate the handle off a screwdriver once.
