Everyone knows that the most important difference between rats and humans is that eventually rats will stop going down the same tunnel looking for the cheese. Apparently man’s best friend is also only as bright at humans. With enough scratching (and I would imagine quite a bunch of barking as well) Cujo may have gotten all the way through this wall and into the house----bypassing the door all together. The appearance of all of this damage to the garage wall is quite dramatic. One can see where the dog has clawed its way through the drywall and exposed the studs in the wall next to the door trim-----a little bit further to the left and he would have been into the open cavity and headed for the drywall on the other side. But the picture begs a few questions. How many times did Cujo turn the lights on and off? Did he do better work in the dark or with the light on? How many times did he actually un-latch the door without ever knowing that all he had to do was pull it towards him? Lastly----a proper cover plate on the switches is recommended for dog-safety.
