@AstroCB is it possible to fix this question?

bjb568

@AstroCB Eh, you put effort in.

AstroCB

@AndrewT. It's possible, but the OP is going to have to narrow the scope a bit. Also, I'm sure there's a dupe somewhere.

Q: How do I fix a door frame that my dog chewed?

My dog chewed the bottom part of the doorframe to my bedroom. I live in a rented apartment, so this is not OK. Is there any way to fix it and make it look somewhat presentable (doesn't have to be perfect)? How do I find a matching frame? How do I match the paint? Update: Just wanted to tha...

Not a good situation to be in.

TBH, I'd get a decent-looking plastic guard thing that'd fit, and explain what happened to the landlord.

03:56

I think you're right. There is nothing worse then "I have no idea what I'm doing, my dog chewed your door frame, I think I fixed it".

Undo

Most landlords are pretty handy and painting the bottom half of a door is nothing.

@InfiniteRecursion I'll try to drop by more regularly to check for lists like this in the future. Don't hesitate to ping me whenever you do more dumps; it'll send a notification to my phone via the SE app.

@InfiniteRecursion I generally reserve dv's on questions for questions like that last one, and dv's on answers where I know they're just wrong.
