I once found kelly green dog poo in my yard, I picked it up with a plastic bag and went in to call the vet. I had never seen kelly green poo before, and just as I got to the phone my dog threw up a bluish green sock...Saved me a vet bill, but why would a dog eat a sock?...Only the green dye made it through the digestion tract...
This same dog ate an entire bag of Hershey’s Kisses. It took nearly five days for all the aluminum foil to exit.
I have a kelly green poo story as well. Unfortunately I didn’t find it until a couple of days after the fact. My lab/Chesapeake mix got into my candy chocolate and ate an entire pound bag of the green bits. Unfortunately I had green carpet in the living room at the time................
Speaking of socks, one of my late Great Danes ate my daughter’s big, fluffy tennis sock and barfed it up later. We didn’t realize the sock was missing and, even if we had, we probably would have assumed that the washer ate it or, some socks actually being wire hanger larvae, that it matured into a hanger.
Our one lab use to like to lick a sock if we forgot to close the laundry room door. We would come home and find a sock that he had thrown up. One day, I caught him one day and watched what he did, he held the sock with his paws, and was licking it..getting it nice and wet, then would eat it. I grabbed it from him before he ate the sock...after that, just made sure no socks were laying around.
My coworker has golden retrievers who also eat socks, panties, anything...had to have many surgeries for bowel obstructions....
My cat Deimos has eaten
* A rubber band
* Plastic labels from apples (fruit, not computers)
* A mosquito I swatted
* A clump of hair from another cat
That boy ain’t right
