New Dog Libby realizes her crucial role as watchpup, alert for zoning administrators and similar vermin.
She is less adept at understanding scrap lumber as kindling rather than chew toys.

I feel your pain. Our 7-month-old Jack Russell has nibbled, knawed on furniture, window sills, chair legs, and other things wooden in her limited-access area. Some spray from PetSmart, called "Yuck", or something like that, seems to help. JAGSC

Upon seeing the first picture I thought "Wow! I don't remember full length windows and polished oak floors!" And then I saw the mouse and the coffee cup. And in the second picture I think the matchstick gives Libby a certain encouse ensous rakish air.

Actually, I missed the match until you mentioned it. Does give her a vampy aura, doesn't it?

You'd still recognize the Commandante's quarters. There were some heavy changes to the parlor ceiling about five years ago, partly to vault it and replace the plaster board with God's own wood, partly to keep it from falling down and squishing said Commandante with all his livestock.
