This bloody dog will be the death of me

For quite a while my mother was puzzled by little pieces of grey foam on my bedroom floor. I hadn’t got a clue about it either.
One day she walked into my room to find the dog, with the corner of the carpet pulled up, chewing the foam backing. He had mastered the art of pulling up the carpet using his claws, then nosing it back into position. As demonstrated when she shouted at him.
Half King Charles Spaniel, half Chihuahua, fabulous dog, mostly well behaved. Lived to 16.

He had hold of him by the head and was trying to get him into his mouth. It was awful - luckily DH got to him quickly and managed to save the daschund before he injured him. Had he not acted quickly the daschund would have been badly injured.

My dog would like to say amateur - none of this nibbling business, a few chomps and it's gone before the human notices / reaches you! Aaah cheese, happy days.

<cries> In honour of this thread I was awoken by Dog 2 at 5am when she had diarrhoea on the bedroom floor. She got into the bin yesterday and ate a chicken thigh (with bone) and homemade baked beans.

My 9 year old lab when not even a year old, ate the kitchen flooring twice. Ended up just putting a mat over the bit he chewed. Eaten the cupboard door too, fixed that. He ate 1/2 a bag of dog biscuits 3kg worth of food. Other lab ate the plaster off the wall. Labs are so bloody greedy 😆

He is utterly gorgeous ❤️

Well, what a way to start my morning - a cup of coffee and reading the updates on this thread!😂Brilliant - it never gets old! 😂

He just looks like he's thinking "And .....?" 😂

Ours has just had a large rock cut out of his intestines. Should be coming home this morning, rather doped up and sorry for himself but digestive system successfully repaired.

He's a very handsome Cardigan corgi, not far off the size of a labrador with short legs.

Why did he eat the rock? I don't know. Personal reasons. He got it all the way through his stomach too.

One of our springers got to my husband's new debit card when it was delivered-it looked like a 3D sculpture. The cashier at the bank was a true dog lover-when I produced it as proof, the first thing she said was "is the dog all right?". (She was)

See, you just don't get this with cats 😆

My dog went through a phase of chewing things as a puppy, but mostly concentrated on things he couldn't damage, such as radiator pipes. However. His second christmas was the first time he lived with a christmas tree ( only 3 months old for his first and I thought better of it), and he was obsessed with knocking just one bauble off the tree to play with. They were sturdy plastic, too big to fully fit in his mouth (he's a pug), and he just wasn't a strong chewer, so after the umpteenth time of putting the same bauble back on the tree I thought fuck it, let him keep it. It was gold and glittery, and he concentrated on scraping it with his front teeth. Then on christmas morning, he produced a beautiful glittery christmas poo 😂

Grown up child has a golden retriever puppy. On the phone to them a couple of nights ago and suddenly they stopped talking to me and started shouting stop eating the lawn, stop eating the lawn. I nearly fell over laughing. Simon is a legend.

Me too, I mean it would be awful for the neighbours but it is so funny😂

Last dog’s finest hour was a bag of oatmeal. Didn’t think he’d eat that, having carefully made sure the bread etc was locked away. Came back from work to find the kitchen floor an inch deep in fucking oatmeal. At 3am he let out an unearthly groan and I had to take him out in the snow and wait for ages while he shat out 99% oatmeal poos.

Current dog 1 used to have a thing for socks. Unfortunately she was extremely sneaky so was never caught in the act, only when the evidence reappeared.

Dog 2 just costs us money in many, many ways (under chin abscess with a stalk of grass stuck in it, then diagnosed with hip dysplasia at 5 months. One total hip replacement and £6500 later, she’s once more free to wreak havoc by never flipping stopping getting in the bin when my back is turned.)

This is Dobby - he is a chihuahua.

You can probably guess what he loves to eat from my username 🤣🤣🤣

Look at those big brown eyes though
<forgets millions of past food misdemeanours and melts with love>

Wee arsehole ate a friend's red Thai soup. You can just about make out the perfect circle from the bowl round his fat face.
He's a Shiht Tzu and they genuinely do not give one shiny Shiht.

This really isn't a big deal, just a mistake 😅

This one ate her bed - just why?

Ear buds. I've lost two sets. She drinks out of my bedside glass of water too.

One Christmas our spaniel was having a poop something sparkly emerging. I stood on the end. Four foot of bloody tinsel appeared.

Another Christmas tree, Labrador one. Kept in the dining room. Some chocolate decs at the top. We sat down for lunch. The tree behind husband slowly fell towards him landing square on his head scattering ornaments across the table.

This cost us (well, PetPlan) a couple of quid shy of £7,000 last Christmas. She didn't eat it, to be fair - she rolled on it, got it embedded in her flank, and we had a five-month saga involving multiple surgeries and the world's most horrific exploding abscess. We have an artificial tree this year.

I hope Simon is on the mend soon. He's gorgeous 💕

Labrador chewed the zips on cushion covers. I replaced, did it again. And so one. She's had at least a dozen. Plus my zip up dressing gown. Shoes, boots. My beautiful wool rug. Handbag, the bins of course. Two wallets after she carefully removed and chewed every credit card, driving licence etc.

She's never touched money though.

21 months. Please tell me she'll grow out of it.

He looks so innocent- looks are obviously deceiving in his case.

and his piece de resistance: four packets of Atora suet - he was shitting dumplings for a week 😂
