would your pet lie to you?
My golden retriever/lab mix burped and out rolled an avocado pit. She must have eaten an avocado out in the backyard. The avocado variety in south Florida are quite large.
She later consumed a doll’s pacifier which actually lead to her death. We didn’t know what was wrong with her, and it didn’t show up on x-rays. The vet had said he would do an endoscopy because he was puzzled. He didn’t get around to doing it in time. The pacifier was wedged at the bottom of her esophagus, and the acid from her stomach ate through her tissues. She was only six years old. I was heartbroken.
They showed no problems from it.
My guinea pigs eat their own poop. It’s good for them.
And mine ate my digital hearing aid. Almost 3G to replace it.
My Shih Tzu ate a moth ball when she was 8. She really should have known better. I would go into my bedroom and notice the little chenille balls missing from the bottom of the bedspread. She would eat a couple a day. Lived until 16 though.
I had a cat that ate two paper clips, she vomited them back up but not before they caused her major internal trouble and me $700.
Our elderly black lab ate a five pound German Chocolate Cake a few years ago. In a matter of mere minutes. She didn’t die, but she wouldn’t eat dinner for a couple of nights.
My 2 y.o. Rat Terrier stole my purse from my house a month ago. She hid it under a deck where she hides her toys. It was soaking wet when we found it, but luckily she didn’t have it long enough to use my credit cards on-line to order doggy toys. Ratties are smart enough to almost do that kind of thing.
The aging Golden eats paper, any kind of paper. He also eats other animals’ excrement and anything else he can find on the planet.
Of course, all three eat any rodent that they happen to catch, which is pretty cool if you thousands of gophers on the property. The Rattie is the best hunter of them all.
My pup ate a pair of diamond earrings. That was “fun” retrieving them. She also has a thing for business cards.
OTOH, he never chews on fabrics made with natural fibers like cotton or silk. Makes me wonder if he just uses that stuff to "brush" his teeth. LOL!
Dogs-eating-things-they-shouldn’t ping!
My dog once ate the entire shower curtain. They had to cut her open and remove it in strips.
My dog eats cash, and he doesn’t mind having to empty a wallet in order to get it.
He used to snatch the kids allowances right from their hands as they walked by him on the way to putting it away. The kids learned quickly to obey my warnings.
This is no lie: my friend’s dog would dig her dirty panties out of the laundry and eat them. I know right?
