I'm a bit of a lurker on here but do really enjoy reading about all your puppies tales - makes me feel a bit better that I can't have a dog at the moment.

But a thread further down (mentioning eating socks) got me thinking. What's the weirdest thing your dog has ever eaten? We used to have 4 springers who were all excellent bin raiders (no matter where you hid the damn thing). Think the most bizarre was the elastic netting you get holding a joint of beef together. Our old boy ate it and then poo'd chips!! It all came out fine and he was none the worse for the ordeal!

So lets hear about your naughty boys and girls :)
 
Two pairs of balled-up tights which wound their way around her intestines and resulted in £££££ surgery. Why I'm a bit antsy about dogs playing with small personal clothing items :p

My two managed to eat the plastic trays containing their treat of liver a few months ago because I forgot to remove them....
 
A whole t-shirt - which I didn't even notice until it reappeared, bit by bit!:rolleyes:

A raw sugarbeet the size of his head that had fallen off the wagon when they were harvesting:eek:

The foot of a stuffed duck dog toy:eek:

2.5kg of assorted rubbish out of the bin which led to a megabucks expensive operation:eek::mad:
 
I've heard a story about a dog being operated on after it ate a dildo.... That would be a funny story to tell the neighbours!

Also, giving back a tiny thong that has been removed from intestine to a rather "larger lady" who definately DID NOT own that thong!
 
My Dad is a trout fisherman, he came back with 6 beautiful trout which he laid on the worktop. The Doberman stole one and ate it whole, like a seal. My mother kept telling my Dad he had mis-counted the trout so the dog didn't get in trouble.

My whippet Poppy ate the flower heads off a bunch of tulips that were in a vase on the dining room table. The vase was perfectly upright with just a bunch of stems standing in it.
 
Nothing too unusual really, but Paddington made me laugh once on a Monday morning walk before the bins had been emptied from the weekend picnics, he stuck his head in a carrier bag before I could grab him and as i'm shouting at him he sheepishly trots back with a "what? I haven't done anything" look but the massive dollop of potato salad on the top of his nose told a different story!:rolleyes:

Busted! Too funny to warrant a telling off :D
 
Have just had typical Goldies really...

Onions, cucumber, carrot, the nose, ears, arms, eyes and legs of her toy hedgehog, the strands she pulls out of her rag toy (our current one) and our previous one (God love her) ate repeatedly the same piece of wallpaper on the wall (we gave up decorating that one piece), she had razors (took the blades out first and ate the plastic!), :eek: knives (Same story), chair and table legs and pencils which consequently made her poo green which she'd take great delight in spotting all over the garden...

Our GSD when she was a puppy (now 10) was never that destructive or curious in what was edible or not, but decided to eat a hole in the plaster under the stairs so she could deposit her toys in there - every time we repaired it, she'd do it again and there was never any plaster on the floor we could only conclude she'd devoured it!

Surprisingly, now they won't touch a thing if its not on the dog shelf (floor) and we can leave anything out overnight and they won't eat it :rolleyes:
Wouldn't be without them! :D
 
Haha, these are brilliant!

I did have to laugh a lot when coming home one day to discover the dogs had tipped over the bin and the cat had found an empty cat food can and got her head stuck in it. I felt really bad but just couldn't stop laughing.
 
When my dog was a pup he ate his lead! We didn’t know until it came back out the other end intact! We just thought we had lost it!
We were very lucky there were no complications!
 
I posted about mine last week :-) He got into the bird food bin and consumed 1.5 big suet fat blocks containing dried insects and mealworms!! Luckily (and amazingly!) there were no unfortunate consequences!

My Dad's dogs (both labs!) have had a couple of incidents. One stole a piece of corn on the cob resulting in £££££ and surgery to remove the cob! The other nicked some belly pork which was wrapped in a net - his next poo came ready packaged!!

My Grandmother's old collie used to have a sugar beet fetish and would always knaw on it if she saw some.
 
My lurcher has always been a thief but his finest hour has to be stealing one cheese off the Christmas cheeseboard - only one, the rest were intact and the board was still on the worktop so it took us ages to work out where the missing cheese had gone.

We also had a near miss when i returned home to find him raiding the sewing kit and about to finish off a reel of cotton with needle still stuck in it :eek:
 
Over the years mine have eaten all sorts of weird things. The most recent was last week when Buffy, who at 9 should know better, pinched my bum bag off the worktop and completely destroyed it, only the zip and a poo bag remained. I had been foolish enough to leave a couple of titbits in it from Evies training and old super nose had obviously sussed this out. Since her eyesight has failed her other senses do seem to have heightened, she is supposed to have a bad back but obviously managed to get up on her hind legs on this instance. Bits of black leather kept appearing over the next few days so luckily didn't cause a problem.
 
My Jack Russel ate the fingers off my son's goalkeeping gloves when she was a pup, this resulted in an expensive vets bill as they did not reappear on their own!!!!!!!!!
 
My akita proceeded to eat a rescue cat that had died in the garden, she carried it to her stash (kennel):D and knawed it's knee caps off and chewed some ear off:eek: I obs removed the rest before she ate the lot:rolleyes:
 
Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me, the tights-eater had three of my pet rabbits as well :o :o :o :o
Yes, we did actually feed her......and we'll just forget the attempted cat-eating episode a few weeks ago....
 
Purdey our 6 month old springer ate my husband's blood pressure tablets!
On Bank holiday Monday of course making it a VERY expensive emergency trip to the vets so they could make her sick and feed her charcoal. They kept her in to monitor her but luckily she was none the worse - she will certainly have no high blood pressure problems!
 
Lard. My old samoyed once munched through 3/4 of a big block of pure lard. She also ate 4 whole beetroot which turned her doings totally black, gave my poor old mum a heart attack until I explained.

And Mickey used to eat birdseed on a regular basis.
