Is she young and teething? If not she is sharpening those teeth-to greet an intruder!

Bully's chew, could get into the long reason why but let's just for now say they need to. They especially love rawhide. Find the best kind our cheap ones at Walmart round rolls about six inches long. Max works on new one till it's shredded into pieces. Throw pieces away cause he will gag.

NEEEEVERRRRR give rawhide to ANY dog!!! I know a few vets they say themselves they do surgery to remove the rawhide that forms in a ball and it wont digest. Give your dog marrow bones.
[MENTION=16460]Lycilizzy[/MENTION] often animals will chew or lick bricks, cement cause of the salt/minerals...lack of minerals. Try giving raw marrow bones. If lucy doesn't touch any other furniture, chairs, sofa but just the brick, I would say more of a lack of mineral. Marrow is full of good minerals and she will stop with the bricks. Watch her teeth so she doesn't ruin them.

She may be bored and the fireplace is there--- get some raw marrow bones antlers. Stat away from rawhides and cooked bones-- they are not good for dogs.

Is the fireplace made of stone? Can it be that she has some kind of craving for whatever the bricks contain?! Does she chew on other stones or on the furniture?
