Post by: gergg on February 24, 2019, 10:30:37 AM
My wonderful dog got ahold of my personal Snakewood trumpet this morning, I laid it on my side table and he sniffed it out....dang....This was one of my first new models with a hollowed out bell, man did I love this one too....lol....lesson learned. At least I can show you a "split shot" of my hollowed out bell  :TooFunny:

That hurts to look at. Not only was it a beautiful call but one of the most rare and expensive woods. I'm surprised the dog didn't break a tooth hard and dense as snake wood is.

That snakewood must've smelled really good to the dog! The first turkey I ever killed my dog ate the tail and beard, wind blew it off my workbench. Oh well.

Yeah, my heart sunk a bit when I saw it.....I am a sucker for Snakewood, I just like the way it plays/sounds. This was a nice piece of wood and it really worked for me, oh well, I will just turn another one before the season opens.

Really sorry to see that but your right, he was just being a dog. I've had them eat furniture, house plants. shoes - you name it, just being a dog. We love our dogs and we may get mad at the time but we always forgive them and get over it, after all, they are man's best friend.

Sorry about your call. Mine ate all my spurs I had drying out on piece of stainless tie wire. Some how he didn't swallow the wire.

I have watched him go back to the site of the crime looking for more "snakes" to eat....sneaky dog.

That sucks bad! I have a puppy that is 8 months old and she had gotten a hold of a few of mine after they were wrapped and all. Once she could reach the counter top it was too late
Hate the dog got it

My wife had a DNA test done on him, equal percentage....Siberian Husky, German Shepherd, Boxer, American Staffordshire Terrier, Rottweiler, Treeing Walker Coon Hound.....True mutt, smart as a whip, fast and strong.
