I had to save my Wire-haired Fox Terrier twice one night over a big T-bone he snatched from a plate. The sharp end pierced the roof of his mouth. The length wise bone had jammed his jaws full open so he could not dislodge it. Blood everywhere. The dog was shrieking in pain as it frantically tried to pry it loose. I wrapped him up with a towel to immobilize him, and using pliers I was able to dislodge the bone. Sitting there with rescued dog in one hand, bone in the other, that little devil squirmed free and dove on that bone, and did it all over again!

I know it isn’t funny but I had to laugh at just how darn stubborn your terrier is... After getting the bone dislodged by pliers... he went right back after it again. Naughty doggie!

Some years ago, I had some guests due over for a trout dinner and had six beautiful just over one pound trout ready to go on the charcoal grill.
I stepped inside the house for 30 seconds and when I came out, there were five fish and our late Golden Retriever, Prior Lake Jake, had a rather guilty look. He swallowed the trout in one bite and showed no digestion problems afterward.

Long ago, I had a Rottweiler. A friend tossed her a t-bone. She swallowed it in one shot, and that was that. No sign of it again. I don’t know how that happened. Another time (same dog) stole a chicken bone, crunched it and swallowed it. I just reached down her throat and got it back.

Bones must be a powerful addiction.
