broken drive belts

I've been riding for over 35 years and have my 1st belt drive,so I'm going through the drive belts faster than anything. Then I'm on the computer ,with my dog a large catahoula in the house and I notice he's chewing on a broken 2"drive belt I just replaced. So no maintenance is not the most important thing in drive belts, its parking somewhere your cur dog cant chew up your bike. When he was a pup I had to break him from chewing up the garden hose this time I just the broken drive from a tree with a limb that pulls back and he loves pulling on it.

So now you're teaching him it's OK to chew on drive belts?

Welcome to the Forum from Colorado!
Sounds like you need to keep the dog away from the bike.
