digging, barking, whinging, whining, pigs of dogs, food obsessed, noisy, smelly, pains in the rear end!!!!!!! chewers aswell!!!
food obsessed!!! didn'ti say that already???
i take it you don't like beagles??

honestly the above could probably be applied to most dogs at some stage or another...e.g labradors are also food obsessed...but dogs can be trained and most of the above is due to not having enough to keep their minds busy and body active. Dogs are born to do a job, if they are just chucked in the backyard and walked once a day, if that, then of course they are going to start (what we consider) destructive behaviours to entertain themselves.
