My dog ate my Transear!
« on: January 19, 2011, 12:56:41 pm »
She chewed the wire in two.  I just got the Transear before Christmas and I have loved it.  I brushed my hair when I got home from work and apparently knocked it out onto the floor.  The estimate of repair wasn't bad, but I am just sick about it.  Hopefully, they will just have to replace the tiny wire.

Bummer!

Now you've got my worrying about my hounds swallowing my baha when I get it. I do hope it is a simple fix for you.

She thought it was a new squeaky toy.

Oh sure.... I'll bet you were one of those kids that tried to convince the teacher your dog ate your homework too, weren't you?   :D

I know it's not funny, but I have to admit I got a chuckle out of reading the subject title!

Bad dog!   >:D

I am laughing now (not so much at first).  Just another bump in the road.
