I guess it could have been one of the rawhides he got for Christmas, but more than likely it was the wrapping paper that he traditionally rips into shreds on Christmas morning. I happened to catch him with this silly expression on his face and it was clear that he was enjoying Christmas. I hope you had a great Christmas as well. Maybe someone caught you chewing something on camera too? ;)

In our house, when we see Stella puppy mouthing something, we do a sort of mental triage. Is the object she has in her mouth (1) important to us (2) dangerous to her if swallowed (3) worth getting up and chasing her for? LOL
