To chihuahua
Αγοράσατε σκύλο.
Οκ.
Για 18 μήνες περίπου ξεχάστε
-Παπούτσια
-Άλμπουμ
-Χαλιά
-Ύπνο
-Εξόδους.
-Ρούχα.
αλλά και πολλά άλλα που δεν διανοήστε.( δείτε καταθέσεις ταλαίπωρων ιδιοκτητών στο τέλος)
Μην διανοηθείτε να αγοράσετε ένα σκυλί πιστεύοντας ότι θα μάθει μόνο του να μην μασάει ότι βρει, ότι θα μάθει μόνο του να κάνει τα κακά του στην ώρα τους και εκεί που πρέπει, ότι θα μάθει μόνο του να μην γαβγίζει όταν φεύγετε από το σπίτι, ότι θα μάθει μόνο του ποια είναι η θέση του σε ένα διαμέρισμα.
Όλα αυτά θα του τα μάθετε εσείς, με επώδυνη για τα νεύρα σας επανάληψη, κάθε μέρα, για 18 μήνες.
Μετά, θα έχετε ένα πιστό παιχνιδιάρικο σύντροφο που θα ξέρει ποια είναι η θέση του στο σπιτικό σας, που δεν θα δαγκώσει ποτέ το παιδί σας και που θα μπορείτε να αφήσετε σε κάποιο γείτονα αν πάτε διακοπές και το ξενοδοχείο δεν δέχεται τετράποδα.
Εδώ θα μάθουμε μαζί κάποια πράγματα, βασικές εντολές, τους τρόπους αντιμετώπισης προβλημάτων, και ποια ράτσα ταιριάζει στον τρόπο ζωής σας.
Ο σκύλος δεν είναι παιχνιδάκι για τα παιδιά που μόλις μεγαλώσει πετάμε στο δρόμο.
Είναι μια συνειδητή δέσμευση για τα υπόλοιπα δέκα χρόνια της ζωής σας, μια προσθήκη στην οικογένεια σας.
Επιλογή σωστού σκύλου.
Ράτσες και τα χαρακτηριστικά τους.
Πολύ Μικρά Σκυλιά
1)Τσιουάουα
Ιστορικό.
Το μικρότερο σκυλί στον κόσμο. Πιστεύεται ότι έχει ρίζες στο Μεξικό αλλά και στην Μεσόγειο. Στην Μάλτα ονομάζεται «σκύλος τσέπης»
Χαρακτήρας.
Μικρό σκυλί με ιδιοσυγκρασία μεγάλου. Γεμάτο κουράγιο και ζήλο, όταν νιώθει αγάπη δίνει όλον του τον εαυτό. Μερικές φορές είναι φοβητσιάρικα και καχύποπτα με τους ξένους. Του αρέσει να κυνηγάει ποντίκια. Τα πάει καλά με τις γάτες.
Όψη.
Δύο ειδών τριχωμάτων. Μακρύ και κοντό.
Χρήσιμες πληροφορίες.
Είναι θαυμάσιος σύντροφος για ηλικιωμένους. Τρώει λίγο. Το γάβγισμά του μεταπείθει. Δεν ταιριάζει σε νέες οικογένειες με ταραχώδη τρόπο ζωής.
y dogs have eaten:
A very large (1/2 pound!) Chocolate Turtle. A travel bag filled with treats including wrapped granola bars. Lots and lots of Napkins and Paper Towels and tissues A pair of panties An entire loaf of Cinnamon Raisin bread... but left the two heels sitting on top of the package! The only one that gave any trouble was the bag full of old food and wrapped granola bars, and the wound up costing $1560 in vet bills. Ok, time for some horror stories. Let's hear them. Maybe Josh will start. | |
| |
Pip ate poop... lots of poop... and then threw up poop... all over the living room floor... So I had to clean up poop vomit.
not particularly dangerous, But utterly disgusting. And yes, I'm working on that! | |
a wet terry cloth wash cloth
plastic bits off of a whole lot of stuffies a rabbit's ear - a pink stuffie rabbit - not a real one any food item in your hand and you drop it down low enough - surely you intended it to be a sheepie snack Can somebody tell me why they wait until the middle of the night to vomit it up? | |
Bobsled, the second sheepdog ate a box of chocolate, a loaf of bread and the wrapper and half a dozen hamburger buns. He had seperation anxiety issues. | |
drywall... everyday for about 2 months | |
Harley ate a full size bed, comforter, pillows, sheets and 10 rolls of TP when I was pregnant.
Then ate my custom oversized comforter about a week later. Then my camera case... Then Harley & Pepsi drank the Peanut oil. Which still haunts me to this day since the stains come right back up through the carpeting only weeks after it is cleaned Also Harley puked it up on the couch so the stains are there too. Then Pepsi drank the corn water a few weeks back and got sick only in the house Peanut used to eat the bottoms of the cabinets in our rental house. As a pup he used to chew the heels off my dress shoes. Should I even mention Rags trying to eat Peanut (the dog)? | |
Kelsey ate Dry wall, bottom of the washing machine, door frames and window frames. A few years back a rainbow lorakeet parrot hit our window when Kelsey was outside, I went out and by then it was gone , a few days later she vomitted up a delightful pile of rainbow feathers.
Peppa ate anything that looks edible, once was a rotten bird egg, obviously kicked out of a nest, she ate it and the breath was enough to send you to an early grave Then she came inside and threw that up, PHEW run for your lives!! Not to mention with her 1kg of rock hard frozen mince meat and one whole cooked chicken, and also the trash can, well that was put away as to peppa it was a goodie treats bin YUK. Brie use to eat the top knot bands out of Kelseys head coat, dum dum would let her do that, a few days later the colour bands would appear in the Poop, always a surprise at clean up time to see what colour band appeared in todays lot. | |
These posts are insane!!!!! WOW - I'm going to be on my toes in a couple months - WOW (the only word I have) | |
My turn.....
Panda has eaten... 1 book (left the front and back cover on though) bbq knobs screen door sprinkler heads spigot heads and the turtle (fortunately that has stopped) | |
So far Noodle has only eaten a partial roll of toilet paper and the cover of a paperback book
Our Australian Shepherd ate: a pound of fresh pasta, the linoleum in the hallway, the linoleum in the kitchen. Bottom frame of a window. Wallpaper and drywall from the hallway, drywall- frighteningly close to an outlet- in the kitchen. She must have been a decorator in another life | |
Drywall? Yikes. Jasper is picky about what he eats - if it's not his food, he'll hardly touch it. Guess we got lucky with him. The only other thing I can think of that he likes is cooked steak and popcorn.
Now Joy...let's see - a mole, a bird (that she brought into my house today - grr), she "digs" through the garbage can, paper towels, toilet paper, toys, apples, whatever is on the table/counter (she's bad about "climbing' up there). She exhausts me! She's worse than the kids and I'm constantly chasing her around to see what trouble she's getting into, lol Thank goodness she's only a few months old and still learn pretty quick (at least she should be, lol). | |
Flash: an entire 1 lb bag of peanut m&m's, right out of a covered candy dish, after which he put the top back on
Rosco: loves rabbit poop, cell phones, eyeglasses, remotes, anything he can grab off the counter Luke: anything Rosco will steal for him Daisy: if it doesn't taste like bacon she isn't interested Beau: he was such a good boy he wouldn't eat anything we didn't give him; in fact he would hide if the others got something they shouldn't because he didn't want to be involved | |
OMIGOD!!!!!!!!!
Quincy ate whatever we gave him (dog food, table food, etc.), and nothing else. If I left food on the coffee table, all I would have to say is "not yours", and he wouldn't touch it. He was such a good boy!!!!! Oscar isn't that well behaved, but the worst he's done is grab papers off my desk and chew them up....when he was five months old! He hasn't touched anything since. Now my friend has a black lab that we swear is a goat. The things she's had to pull out of that dog's behind......... plastic grocery bags, socks, underwear, the list is endless. Knock on wood, in 12 years that dog has never gotten an obstruction. A miracle if you ask me! | |
Geez ! Don't you guys feed your dogs? Are you sure they are sheepdogs and not goats? Right now I have 8 loaves of freshly baked bread - right out of the oven setting on the counter. I'm in the back room, they are both in the kitchen. They won't touch them (anyone want a loaf of my homemade bread? .)
Barney is my taszmanian devil - he did eat a sponge once and occasionally will eat poop - but he's grown out of that since I switched to Proplan. | |
Any paper products that fall on the floor in our house are fair game. Yesterday, either I (or one of the dogs) knocked a book off the coffee table and onto the floor. We came home from shopping to find shreds of paperback all over the living room. I found the book under the couch-- missing the cover and the first 10 chapters. Luckily, I was well into the book so I only had to endure a few chew marks. The funny but not so funny part? It was James's book and he hadn't started it yet. | |
I have always heard that you should never pull anything out because you risk pulling out intestines or something. Is this true or just an old wives tale? | |
Let me go to the drawer with the remnants of stuff Bentley's eaten . . .
Bose Remote Chap Stick Black Pen Crest Spinbrush Pro Plastic Coaster Plastic Shim Cat Toy Bread Sponge Toilet Paper Puffs Today's list consists of Hot Dog Buns Hot Dog Buns (2 packages) Roses Cherries At least he only chews the dead canes on the rose bushes. | |
Today:
The bottom of my antique marble top rosewood coffee table. - Sam Couldn't he have chewed on the cheap modern one in the den??? | |
Louie has chewed:
A paperback book the cover of a hardback book the corner of the coffee table all the corners of a decorative bench thing my glasses my cellphone movie cover drink coasters my desk chair but these were all when he was a puppy (except the glasses-that happened when we first moved). So I guess we're pretty lucky that his chewing is pretty limited to his bones or other assorted toys. | |
You all probably don't remember this from a few months ago, but I
posted about it- among other disasters at my house. (I'm just too lazy to go find the post.) I came home to find a blood splattered all over the kitchen, floors, counters, cabinet fronts, both dogs, everywhere blood. My dogs had taken a really heavy baking dish out of the sink, which of course broke when it hit the floor. ( I can't imagine how they got it out of the sink, I would have said it wasn't possible for them to do it, but well...) I guess whatever (can't remember) was in there was irresistable, because they licked it clean and ate some small pieces of the dish. One had a pretty good gash on his nose, the other had some cuts in his mouth and on his tongue. Fortunately, they both healed fine and we had no other broken dish related problems. I still cannot believe they escaped with a few minor cuts, because if you could have seen all the blood... I thought they had mauled an intruder - or worse- someone had cut or shot one of them. Then there is the time Tucker sailed through the storm door glass to get a neighbors yippy little pocket pooch out of his yard- no injury at all, and that was a miracle. But this thread was about eating bad things, so... Shellie | |
George, don't tease us about the bread!
And Holly, yes, that's true. | |
None of my sheepdogs has ever eaten anything bad, besides my shoes..And lego
But my Lhasa, Paula, she just looooved baby pampers, especially whit poop , she eat two green canary and a goose .and she just loved it if she could find some leftover beer | |
LMAO Great thread, Ron!
ANNIE: Three POUNDS of Hershey's miniatures. She had to pull apart wrapped holiday presents and ribbons to get to them. I posted the story a long time ago, but can't find it. The ER vet asst told us they got all of it out STILL WRAPPED. Did we still want to give the chocolates as gifts??? - Entire loaves of Oatmeal bread - 1/2 sheet of Texas chocolate cake - Kleenex - Fozzie's nose FOZZIE: - Foliage (leaves, grass...) - Page of Jan Fennell's Dog Listener book - Paper goods - Annie's paws | |
Hee Hee, such a funny thread...
Maggie: all the baseboards in the kitchen Kleenex Toilet paper Barney: cat toys Lenny (the cat): 2 purses 4 sweaters (cashmere!!!) anything with straps (shoes, laces, camisoles,bras, bathing suits, underwear, hair things, drawstrings on ALL my hoodies AND pants) socks lettuce (or any greens) from the sink our fingers (lick lick BITE) 3 throw blankets corner of the bannister...did I mention this is a CAT!! | |
I just came home from work to find a house plant eaten, and the dirt scattered in 2 different rooms. I believe Riley, the 9 month old rat "terror" pup was the bad boy, not Bart.
We luckily do not have problems with this as a rule. I guess that's why we have 7 dogs- we haven't had the problems like you guys have listed. Yikes, I would only have a couple if they were that destructive! | |
This is a funny thread! Makes me feel better to know that I'm not the only sheepy mom who can't always catch her in time. (although I will say now that she's almost two, the chewing has significantly slowed down)
okay, here's Callie's list: dryer sheets underwear hair scrunchie flip flops (yeah, we saw some rainbow poop too) electric plug off the end of her humidifier (luckily it wasn't plugged in at the time) a perfect square out of the carpet (I think she was trying to clean up where she had peed on the floor) a long piece of plastic from the floor of her crate plastic from the baby gate a ziploc bag full of her baby teeth drywall table legs rubber bands from her hair and I can't count the number of purses and undergarments with teeth marks / holes / pieces missing And the list for Lambda, our pug puppy: Callie's hair!! Everytime I turn around she has a mouth full of hair she is trying to chew up and swallow! She just runs up to Callie and pulls it off of her - or finds those lovely hair tumbleweeds under furniture. The vet said we might have to start giving her cat hairball medicine. They sure do keep us busy, don't they? | |
Scruffy:
Loves socks. Every week I have to throw at least two away becuase they have a new hole in them. I also find a fair amount outside. I don't think she has acutally eaten a whole one yet. Her favorite is the trash. We finally had to get a lid for it to keep her out. The plastic handle to the crate. And I totally agree with whoever said why do they have to wait until the middle of the night to trow it up. Every time I catch her eating something I say "We'll see that again at 4 this morning" and without fail, we do. Porsche: She's a poop eater. I have that same story of her eating poop and then throwing it up. That is the most horrible dog experience. So smelly, so disgusting. I can handle most dog messes, but that was the worst. She also really likes to steal the stuffed Eeyore. I find his detachable tail all over the house. It's getting smaller and smaller. | |
When we were little my sister and I always used to leave out crayons out...and Ollie would eat them...technicolor poop always followed.
Our next two, Jake and Izzy, were mostly just regular counter-surfers. Banana bread, pumpkin pie, easter candy, nut roll and a bag of chocolate chips(attempted) are all I can remember. We learned to have extremely clean counters and never left food out. I believe they did manage to chew up at least one of my sisters hearing aids once. After that she made sure she put them in a drawer at night. Our new Izzie...she is actually very good. She has barely chewed anything she isn't supposed to. | |
My angel, Bosley, hasn't eaten anything really.
Dixie spends her time dragging our shoes to her cushion in the family room, one by one. We are 5 people, with at least 2 pairs each, so if we don't watch her there ends up a HUG pile of them....When she is done she picks one and chows down on it. | |
(Warning - not for the squeamish) Bailey is fond of paper products - any kind of paper he can steal from a trash can is fine with him. Usually he just shreds it up and leaves it for me. However, he has eaten a few tampons. I was frantic the first time - and embarrased to call the vet. But I did and he said it was more common than I would believe | |
Our last Family dog, Baxter (cockapoo +) had a thing for tampons too. We didn't have sewers where we lived so we could not flush them. It was so gross, we used to find them in his poop, all over the floor shredded. As a matter of fact Hayley (my upright 16 month old daughter) recently got into the cabinet where I keep mine (about 2 months ago). She came out of my bedroom with a tampon hanging out of her mouth. Thankfully it was not used...she had opened the wrapper and was chewing on both the tampon and the cardboard I also had to fight with her to take it from her I told her there was no need to play with them now. She would see enough of them when she was older. | |
OMG this is a funny thread. We have been very lucky with Otto--we can leave food on the coffee table and he'll leave it alone, and he's never eaten anything that wasn't food. He also never chewed anything inappropriate (again, just lucky!) EXCEPT twice. When he was about a year old we were feeling bad about leaving him in his outdoor kennel during the day (this was before I started working at a place where I could bring him with me). So we decided to buy him a nice cushion to go into his doghouse. It was not cheap, but we thought he'd like to have something to lie on that was softer than the hard plastic floor of the dog house. Well you guessed it, the very first day we put it in his house we came home to find it shredded to pieces. And the other thing he chewed--the day after we had proudly stuck it on the fridge--was his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate! He had never taken anything off the fridge before, so we're convinced that he was telling us not to get too cocky! We laughed so hard about that. I taped it together and uncrumpled it as best I could and framed it. We still laugh when we think back on it.
As for Quince, we were warned by his foster mom that he's a real counter surfer, so we have been trying hard to retrain ourselves to not leave anything remotely edible out ... so far so good, but I'm sure I'm going to have stories eventually! One thing we have going for us is that with only three legs, he is pretty loud galumphing around the house--he doesn't have the advantage of stealth that your Sheepies have! Marjorie, Quincey the Sheepie and Otto the BMD | |
My puppy beagle just swallowed a pair of panties... has this happened to anyone else and if so what do I do??? | |
I kiss my dogs thanking them for not eating misc items.....Oh, there was some interest in tampons and wastebaskets, but nothing serious. Except for Crumpet sheepdog who loved to eat gravel and ended up dieing from it..........
However I do have stories about friend's dogs: First was a mini doxie who open the refrigerator, pulled out a whole lasagna and ate it including licking clean the broken glass from when the casserole was pulled from the frig. People came home to a very bloated dog.........trip to vet for laxatives............and several very, very large poops over the next few hours. Second is ......well.......friend's son had just discarded his condom when the dog ate it. Guy freaked out, jumped up and rushed the dog to the emergency vet, leaving the girl friend in his bed, in his mother's house. Dog was fine, relationship between boy and girl a bit strained. Mother poured herself a gin and tonic and went to bed. | |
Stacy, did the puppy eat the entire pair or just part of it?
Any vomiting? Difficulty breathing? Any change in behavior? How big is your puppy? | |
Most of the panties and washcloths and socks will be vomited back up with no help within 24 to 48 hrs or be passed on in the stool. For some reason they always seem to throw it up in the middle of the night.
Make sure you watch your dog that he continues to eat and drink and poop normally. Should his stomach become distended or he appears to be lethargic bring him to a vet immediately. | |
My dog Storm has also taken a liking to tampons and paper towels. A few weeks ago I came home and my house was covered in blood... my cat decided that she was bored and started playing with Storm and scratched her tail. Well Storm ran around the house wagging her tail for hours spraying blood all over the walls. Every once and a while I will find a blood stain that I missed! | |
I am so glad that my two are not the only ones.
Rosie and Max both have a thing for used tissues, clean ones just don't do. Max thinks he's an Andrex puppy and loves to roll toilet paper down the stairs while we're out and has a nibble while he's at it. Rosie also used to eat socks whole which you wouldn't know about until it appeared out the other end. How she never got bunged up is beyond me. Thank goodness now that she is nearly 10 she has grown out of it | |
Used Tampons, yuck, used Pads, yuck,,,,,, a 3oz Dove Candy Bar, threw it up ( I called the vet anyway ) Used Ear Plugs, Egg Rolls (left over dinner) | |
How are all of these dogs still alive after eating all of this JUNK?
I though that animals eat certain foods based upon what they are nutritionally lacking. Since when does a dog need a screen door? Where in the food pyramid does it say, washing machine or dry wall? Oh, my!!! I am so confused. I thought Rheba was bad because she ate a sausage/potato casserole off the stove then a couple months later she ate a dozen chocolate chip cookies. She ate the cookies because I came home from work and left right away to run an errand. She was mad at me and that was her way at getting back at me. Thief! My aunt's German Sheperds ate a whole pot of stuffed cabbage off her stove. They simmered all day for her husband. He came home from work to a wonderful dinner except the pot was spotless. (The pot was typically used for canning..so that means it was huge!) The 2 shepherds ate everything. Not only was my uncle mad because he had no food but the dog's had some violent gas...the cabbage was a bad choice!! | |
LOl - that is so true. It must have been a hideous stink cloud - Whheewww! | |
George ate the footboard on our bed!
And two (yes count them ) two pairs of my new shoes hes one next month and so lucky to have made it | |
I love this thread! I'm glad that I'm not the only mom that can't take her eyes off her boy!
Max is a HORRIBLE counter surfer and has a BAD sweet tooth- This is just a few things he's gotten: CRAYONS - we have rainbow poop outside as we speak! Last week he got an entire bag of candy corn and ate the whole thing - but not the plastic bag. He has some class - LOL! Burger buns by the truckload. Can't leave anything out! A few weeks back - I ordered an extra lg. pizza for dinner (they were having a special) and I left the pizza box on the counter while someone else in our house was having an emergency and when I came back to the kitchen-the entire box was empty. He didn't knock the box on the floor - he somehow lifted the lid, engolfed the entire pizza, and left the box there! He ate an entire box of dark chocolate bite size bunnies - last Easter. He was fine. Thank goodness! At a large popcorn tin full of my daughters candy - I think I counted about 15-20 lollipop sticks and all kinds of candy wrapers all over the floor. It was smashed into the carpet and everywhere! What a mess - and then the "candy farts" that we lived with for days after! They were HORRIBLE! A couple times he stole my breakfast banana off the counter and ate the ENTIRE banana peel and all except for the little branch part of the peel. I find that on the floor. He's feeling the need for potasium? A couple times he broke into the bathroom and chewed on the tubes of toothpaste off the bathroom counter - probably felt the need to clean his teeth after all the candy. He used to jump up and hit the "ice dispenser" lever on the frig whenever he wanted a ice cube to chew on - now we got a new frig with the ice maker on the inside.... Once he knocked over the trash can and had a yummy snack of bacon grease covered papertowels and coffee grounds and anything else he could get to. We now have to keep the trash can in a closet behind a closed door at all times. I think we're ok until he learns to turn door knobs - that's next. He loves cat poop in the litter box - and cat food! Fortunatley - he doesn't eat anything outside - like grass, mushrooms or birds. | |
Thanks so much for the LOL........!!!!!!Max sounds like a handful, but I'm sure your post didn't do his acts any justice. Thanks again for making my day | |
Ok Lily is not a Sheepdog but a Shi-Tzu. Today when we were away she found a bag of bubblegum suckers and little bags of chocolate malt balls
that she consumed. She has been running around like crazy in the house since we came home. She also likes to chew up mardi gras beads and pieces of paper. | |
How much chocolate was in that bag of candy?
Chocolate can be quite bad for dogs. If it was very recent, you should force her to vomit using hydrogen peroxide. | |
Ron--Great thread!!! (ageless)............
Heart is the bandit in question here.... I am looking into buying stock in toilet paper--- there has not been an untouched role in the house since she came. --the credit cards, licenses..wallet --3 pairs of glasses --2 pair of earplugs (kept wondering where I put them(snoring hubby)...FOUND....outside.........in her poop..bright orange, can't miss 'em --Kleenex..(see toilet paper comment) --(almost) the remote --used gum found outside from the grandkids --various socks, underwear (just chews on 'em) And she only 6 months old!!!! (I'm sure I will be posting more in the months to come) | |
Love this... here goes
venetians curtains, toilet paper (tons of it), legos, barbies (oh excuse me my daughter would say they are not barbies but Bratz haha) , a stuffed sheep, speakers, cd's, crayons, erasers, what else ... oh yeah he has a thing for rabbit poop. Oh and of all the doors in the house, he only chews one door knob. I like this thread, it shows me to laugh instead of cry out of anger hahaha | |
Oh, tons of stuff, including:
16 gold foil wrapped fundraiser sized chocolate candy bars. I called the vet immediately who was more concerned about the wrappers since Merlin was so large (110 lbs) and it was only milk chocolate, so less lethal to dogs. Only ill effect was the sparkly poop. Oh, and I had to buy an extra 16 fundraiser candybars. After that, no candy was ever left unattended or down low enough so that it was even remotely possible for Merlin (and now, other dogs) to get into it while left alone in the house. My daughter's favorite pair of underwear. Which she had to help remove when it got stuck, discovered on her walk with Sherman, who was desperately trying to shake the offending garment off/out of his hindquarters. Bits and pieces of, well, you know, were apparently flying around. She was not happy. Lots of shoes (especially new ones), napkins, bits of 100 year old wood work. I've removed the dessicated carcasses of dead birds and bats from my dogs' mouths more than once. Which is why I think it is so important that you train your dog to allow you to move whatever you want from it's mouth. Gross, yes, but potentially life saving. So far, no vet bills. Thank god these dogs have large intestines! | |
My Beagles ate : Chicken bones, baking soda, foil. All went to the vet, about 3000 dollars | |
Ron thanks for a great topic and thanks to everyone for sharing LMAO. Obe's list is not quite as long but here goes: trash out of the bathroom trash can toilet paper, kleenex, hair and god knows what else. Used to eat poop thank god he out grew that. Rocks, sticks, dirt, which as stopped as well. Occasionally some grass, drywall the other day, grab one sandal not destroyed just teeth marks. He is always sticking his head in the trash and I am always saying get out of there. Found a lemon once, he took a lick/bite and refuses to do that again. I think that is about it. Knocking on wood at this very moment though. | |
einys list
any paper product particularly the tubes from toilet rolls crayons loves them (rainbow poop) and form of human food that he can steal off the counters and if he can't get it my 2 year old will feed it to him - we tried to stop that by saying einy can only eat whats in his bowl so my son just put it in his bowl now. he does not eat the peppers on pizza will pick them off before eating the pizza (pizza is his all time fav food) when he was small he dabbled in mayor chewing crime (shoes furnature etc) but his irehabilitation has been a sucess. so we over look the minor crimes of papper stealing but he loves toilet roll inners so much that if you haven't changed the roll and the empty is still on the holder he will grab it and pull till it pops the holder out so he can have the tube. zoe and einy | |
My 5 month old choc. lab just ate 15+ raisins...are they really toxic? | |
They can be, how long ago were they eaten? If it's only been a short time induce vomiting and call your vet ASAP. Good luck. | |
1. the door
2. the sofa 3. the coffee table 4. the end table 5. the bible 6. the carpet 7. turkey carcass after Thanksgiving that I thought was well out of reach 8. garbage bags 9. any toy, plastic or cloth, dog's or baby's Above is just a partial list of things my dogs have experienced in the past (and, unfortunately, some are in the not very distant past). Some of these "delicasies" got them emergency trips to the vet, others just got them in trouble! | |
Other than a bag of Hersey Kisses & some sesame seed hamburger buns , Winston has been pretty good.
His thing is to find something while I am gone and put it in the middle of the living room floor. So far I have found shoes, a Coach handbag, bottle of medication, bag of whole bean coffee, dish rags, collector teddy bears, and a large bag of potatoes (he pulled these out of the pantry). He never chews on the items - but I get the feeling he is saying " Look what I can do! - You might want to take me with you next time!" Needless to say, he generally goes with me |
