all dogs chew to varying degrees

No - I don't think that is true. They are no more destructive than other dogs (especially when puppies) if they are left alone and get bored. Asha does get over-excited sometimes when playing with our labrador and has been known to chew her bed - and once I left her in the house with him for a short time and when I came back she had jumped up on the dining room table and removed a charity-shop book and ripped it up (maybe there was an interesting smell on it) but I think any dog might do that if they got excitable.

Don't have much knowledge on the breed, but know that Tupac has LOADS.

I'm a little afraid of blue eyed dogs. I got in middle of a dog fight when I was 4. Needed stitches in/around my eye, but only remember that the dog had blue eyes.

I couldn't manage the amount of hours exercise they need.

Thanks Deb/Pugglepup

Will hopefully make some contact with Tupac. Regards, Nele
