Trust me I know the breed (Argus is my 3rd Rott) yes he may be bored, but that is not an excuse!!! I am bored too sometimes. He passed all his classes. I don't leave stuff laying around unless he has access to my Son's Room (which is another story, typical Teenager), but he is smart he even know how too open the cabinets...........(which reminds me, kiddie locks
)
The pay-off is a well-behaved, well-adjusted companion that you'll be proud of! <<<<<< He is and I am proud of him, we just have this small minor problem which somehow we get under control too!!!!
