so I was at a neighbors house yesterday evening and I get a text from my wife

'fyi-the red dog was on top of the porsche when I pulled up'

car was parked in back driveway targa in the trunk wearing the sweet CaliforniaCarCover that came with it so I was incredulous and a bit annoyed but not really upset or worried.
well he must've taken a full tour of my ride because this morning when I came out to go to work there is huge dog sized hole in the middle of the cover right where the top should have been. dammit! f-ing red dog! par for the course with this one

here is a picture of the culprit (mug shot) looking suitably ashamed

Attached Image

this isn't even from today it's him being ashamed of something else he jacked up at some point
so my question is think it's worth it to check into repairing the cover or should I just bite the bullet and get a new cover ~$200
I'm waiting on the folks at CCC to get in to chat with them about it but reps are still unavailable this morning - probably all still surfing or rollerblading or going to casting calls or stuck in traffic on the 5

Your pooch is doing you a favor.

Storing a car under a cover like that is just asking for trouble. You'll fook up your paint if you do it for long. Get it in a garage or at a minimum buy one of those $200 Costco enclosed canopies. That car is too nice to be outside.

agreed. there is space for it in the garage (well almost there will definitely be after this weekend) & that's where it will park most. we recently moved so the garage is still a bit of a catch all right now

We've had 2. Vizslas' that is. They only play dumb 2% of the 5% so the owners don't feel inferior to their dog. Love the eyes.

Our first, Eva, had a incredible and at times baffling understanding of words. My wife and I could be hiding at dif ends of the property and Eva would find the 'boy or girl' dependent on the command. We had 3 cats and she would find them by name. I miss that dog to this day esp her "Velcro" personality.
