So, crab-on fiber frame checklist:
Keep out of sunlight
Don't clamp in workstand
Don't drop tools on it
Don't let fall over
Check for cracks before every ride
Torque wrench on every fastener
Keep away from dogs
Sheesh! What's next?

Looks like a joke from my friend, but I don't know if it was real or what happened to the dog if so. Apparently a Bull Terrier could easily have done that. I'd be worried, gnawed CF looks as dangerous as chicken bones.

(My answer was going to be pretty much the same.) Good joke.

My dogs caused some damage too - chewed computer wires, tore cycling clothes, etc. But they never could chew my frames, they all are steel.
