Arrggg! What's the Weirdest Thing You've Had a Dog Swallow? - Page 1

Sorry, pressed 'submit' instead of 'tab' to get to message body!

I purchased a jar of Dog Bloom vitamin and mineral supplement from my pup's breeder. I was using a set of metal measuring spoons to measure it. This morning, the spoons have disappeared. I think one of the dogs went counter-surfing while I wasn't looking, and (hopefully!) has hidden them on me. I've looked in most of the likely places (beside the fridge, under the stove, etc.) and still can't find them. When I turned my back to get the dog food this morning, after measuring out the supplement, the plastic spoon I'd used was on the floor by the time I got back to the kitchen!

That supplement sure must be tasty!

Mind you, when I was giving Ranger his worm medication, hidden in a piece of chicken, one of the tablets dropped onto the floor as he was chewing it. He sniffed it, then scarfed it down! NO problem giving THIS dog pills!! I wish they were all that easy to medicate! I had to force one of Star's tablets down her throat, and boy, those puppy teeth are just like shark's teeth! 

I've finished breakfast, now, and will be doing a more thorough search for the spoons. I just pray that one of the dogs doesn't start showing weird symptoms with their digestion!

My Rottweiler ate 2 AA batteries when she was a pup.  LOL the funniest (but not to the hubby) was one of my females eating part of a motorcycle transmission that the husband decided to work on in the house.  The bad words were flying that day especially when I couldn't stop the giggles.  I TOLD him no more motorcycle parts in the living room.

Everything came out alright for Sadie though:)

I'll bet you'll never guess who this quote is attributable to;

"This is why I HATE crating! People think it's a great way to keep the dog out from under foot so they can get on with their busy lives! EVERYBODY (vets, trainers, petshops, etc.) is telling people: CRATE YOUR DOG! And, of course, the poor dog is getting neglected...

I have to crate my pup until she's housebroken, and I know I can trust her not to trash the place when I'm not home, but once that's accomplished, she'll be free in the house, just like my adult male."

Hoist on my own petard.... I still crate the pup, but so far the worst thing my rescue has done is eaten half a canteoupe, a couple of halloween candies (I left the bowl unattended on the FLOOR! DUH!) and part of a loaf of bread. The canteloupe didn't even give him the runs. He passed the seeds the next morning in a perfectly normal stool!

Still looking for the spoons, though...

Not weird, but gross......when I opened the barn door yesterday morning, my 6 month old GSD went straight for a dead bird on the floor(the babies drop from nests in the rafters), and ate the entire thing in one gulp......yuk!!!!!!!!

Imagine taking a nice, long hot Bath and turning to see you shepherd come prancing in and seeing her drop something outside the tub.  I looked down to spots of blood and a tiny piece of glass.  Worried - I jumped up chasing her into the other room where I find a lamp knocked over and the light bulb chewed out of it!  Luckily she was fine except for some small cuts on her mouth.
