A GREAT Dane is in the doghouse for ripping up a sofa when left for just five minutes.
Ten-stone Bentley was found by owner Nicola Ribchester standing proudly next to the mess.

The 16-month-old pup had worked in silence, tearing a hole in the couch and leaving foam and cushions scattered around the living room.
Student nurse Nicola, 53, said she had nipped upstairs for a few minutes in Brighouse, West Yorkshire.
Her computer worker husband Peter, also 53, is normally at home to keep an eye on Bentley, whom they have had since December, but had to go to a meeting.
Nicola said: “The dog was so quiet I thought he’d gone to sleep — but there was foam from the sofa everywhere, with a big hole in it.
“He was standing on the part that wasn’t broken and looked at me proudly as if to say, ‘Look what I’ve done, Mum’.”

The sofa was second-hand and she added: “It’s a good job we didn’t get a new one or I wouldn’t be laughing.”
