We have 3 puppies in the house now that are about 2 months old.
Stuffing and cheesecloth started appearing all over our house because the afore-mentioned puppies ripped out the liner under our bed and began to play in our boxspring.
My brilliant wife came up with an inexpensive simple solution to this problem that i wish to pass along.
We went to our local lowes hardware store and bought 2 4x8 sheets of lou-on (basiclly cardboard but tougher) for $6.00 each.
We had them cut in half brought them home, overlapped them ( no cutting for hubby! ) on the bottom of the boxspring and tacked them down with finishing nails.
The whole project cost us $12 dollars took 10 minutes and now our bed is puppy proof i plan to do the same to our sofas and chairs.
It seems like someone at a mattress company would have forseen the puppie scenario and thought of this already but since mattresses do not come puppy-proofed I felt obliged to throw this out there to the world. Wolf

Good on ya, and get a copy of Women Who Run With The Wolves. Great research reading, even for Alpha males, and a BIBLE of sorts.
Luan isn't basically cardboard however,,,no offense.
Our gender is still only an arms length from the Cave...Thank your spouse profusely for enlightening you.
