#592: Chewbasket

Young dogs seem to chew anything within reach. This is obviously hard to discourage and may even do damage to the animal’s mouth. In particular, they seem to like to gnaw on their bedding and, if not closely supervised, their baskets.

Today’s invention is a puppy basket in a woven construction. The weave is made not of wicker, but of rawhide strips impregnated with a dental disinfectant. Since the animal will soon grow out of both this bad habit and the basket itself, it might as well contribute to the pup’s health.
