I used one of those foot peel masks & was peeling the skin off. My beagle ran in & ate it all! 🤢

He also rolls in fox shit. And knocked over bathroom bin & took out tampon applicator & ... cleaned it 🤢

My staffy, when she was a puppy, ate the arses out of my DS' pants.

Ugh, and people still let their dog lick their face

One of my dogs cleans the other dog's ears out with his tongue, very very thoroughly, all day long.

My childhood dog had a habit of rolling in cow shit every time we went out for a walk. My ex had an English Bull Terrier who used to eat anything and everything he could get, including exes boxer shorts. We took him for a walk one day when the dog started trying to poop, but what came out was a ragged half eaten pair of boxers and they didn't come all the way out, they got stuck half in and half out of the dogs arse. Just then a friendly German tourist came around the corner and proceeded to have a long conversation with my ex about the dog, she never mantioned the pants hanging out of its backside but my ex was mortified! He had to pull the rest out once the lady had gone on her way, pretty gross!

My old cat would eat her own vomit bless her.

Gogolego · 18/01/2020 11:09

My ddog once ate fox poo which she then couldn't poop out because it made her constipated

We also don't talk about the dark night of 20th feb 2018 where the her poo attached it's self to her bottom fur. She then wiggles her bottom on the carpet. So now poo on carpet. And matted her bottom fur which I then had to cut it out and wash her bottom. EnvyEnvyEnvyEnvy

Cheesedog once ate her own poo then vomited it back up on my sofa 🤢

My dog loves eating worn knickers, once took him to the vets who gave him an injection to bring them back up, which he did on the pavement outside the vets. It was disgusting, a pair of sad looking knickers in slime and vomit juice. I then had to make a decision whether to pick them up or leave them there.

Once a person at a party (never met her before) was telling a group of us that she usually has a rabbit under her bed. I thought 'Gosh, she's brave sharing this information with a bunch of strangers.' I wasn't the only one to think the same, there was a mixture of smirks and shocked expressions before she revealed that her cat kills rabbits (living, breathing rabbits) and deposits them under her bed. She was completely oblivious to any other meaning.

FrangipaniBlue · 18/01/2020 10:50

Her dog would get over excited jump up at your crotch and try and desperately lick / eat your trousers or even tights to get to your P pad. Urgh.

Mine does this. Also takes to behaving like a bigger knobhead than normal for the first 2 days I'm on my period Hmm

FrangipaniBlue · 18/01/2020 10:33

My dog does "sicky burps" basically burps, spews up but catches it in his mouth and swallows it again Envy

IckyIsAFuckingStupidWord · 18/01/2020 09:49

Dog2 was sick, Dog1 was on cleanup duty 🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢

Sumsuch · 18/01/2020 09:48

My dog regularly eats used pads. Or rather, he eats the juicy bits, and leaves the rest in a place where normally my son would find.

We walk past a place where people seem to "go" if caught short. He loves to eat it.

Goose poo, cat poo.

Many many tissues from my sons room. That ones' disturbing I many ways

labazsisgoingmad · 18/01/2020 09:35

my dear old girl poppy now sadly not with us was a sod for rolling on things usually things like pooh worms etc. once we were taking her for a walk and she ran ahead of us to roll on something. when we got close it was a very dead crow which was rather decomposed. the stink was awful we had to wrap her in an old blanket so it didnt go all over the car seats and have all the windows open. i was very thankful when my partner took her for a bath as i know i couldnt have touched the crow all over her fur!

CaptainButtock · 18/01/2020 09:30

Took my dog into work for the day. She proceeded to shit on the floor, eat it, vomit it up then eat it again.

fairydustandpixies · 18/01/2020 09:23

Ddog thinks he's a sheep on walks and eats loads of grass. It passes straight through almost immediately but he ends up with grass hanging out of his arse which I then have to pull out with the aid of several layers of poo bags 🤢💩

WingBingo · 18/01/2020 09:18

I had a friends dog to stay, plus two of my own.

DS2 was having some nappy off time and he had done a poo all over the floor and himself.

He then slipped in it on the laminate floor.

I whisked him into the bath the clean him up and by the time I came back the poo was gone.

I was never sure witch dog ate it. It could have been my friends dog.

DinosApple · 18/01/2020 09:16

Hahaha. I was contemplating a cat, but I think I've changed my mind! Grin

We have fish, in a pond, no drama.

Pardonwhat · 18/01/2020 09:15

Oh actually no. My last post wasn’t even close.

Another cat of mine had fucked off for a while. Eventually located him villages away exploiting an old lady. I collected him and she told me she’d been feeding him tinned fish. Great. Driving home and there was a stench so unbearable that my eyes were red raw. I had to hang my head out of the window and attempt to drive that way. I got home, somehow, and by this point I was dry heaving at the smell. It turns out he’d had explosive diarrhoea all over the crate and himself - and the boot of my car that can’t have been off the forecourt longer than 6 months. I wasn’t sure what to do so I carried him into the bathroom, opened the window and attempted to shower the cat for some stupid reason. Anyway, predictably, he fucked off across all of my new carpets with this now extra wet stream of diarrhoea trailing behind him. Every where. It was fucking awful.
Anyway, months later my car had this vile smell that I just couldn’t get rid of desperate numerous professional cleans. Turns out there was a tiny spec of the shits left on the lip of the boot that was causing it. It stunk on a nuclear scale.
Vile. If he ever goes back to the old lady then she can keep him.

Pardonwhat · 18/01/2020 09:09

Not gross but fucking irritating on a whole new fucking level Angry
We had brand new stables built. Brand new. My fucking horse at the time - on the first fucking night in these brand new fucking stables - took a shit against the wall that landed behind the kick boards and against the wall. Couldn’t get to it. So there it rots. She also pissed in her bucket whenever she could Angry. I loved that horse she kept me on my toes.
The grossest thing is a cat deciding to deposit diarrhoea in the middle of the hall floor and me proceeding to stand in it, barefoot, in the middle of the night. All in between my toes and sweet corn in it Angry

caoraich · 18/01/2020 09:02

When my kid was a newborn she did one of those up to your neck poonamis. Stripped her off in the bathroom and dumped the filthy clothes in the shower cubicle.

Next thing I know the cat was rolling around in baby poo and then proceeded to rub herself all over my bed sheets and then climb up the ladder to the loft, where she rubbed herself all over our Christmas decorations that we were in the process of getting down.

I've never quite forgiven her!

FairyDogMother11 · 18/01/2020 08:57

If either of my dogs is sick, whichever one is not will eat the vomit. It has made me throw up every time it's happened, it's bad enough them eating their own sick, let alone each others Envy (not envy)

Tippytappytoes · 18/01/2020 08:54

To pick just one out of so many seems unfair but here goes...

The time he rolled in human poo on a walk. How did I know it was human? Well I know of no other animal that wipes their bum after they go apart from us. The very worst thing is that we had driven there so I had to put poo dog in my car 🤢

Booboostwo · 18/01/2020 08:51

Oh I forgot the best one. We were renovating an old property with a very old septic tank. One day, unknown to us, the septic tank started spewing its contents out...all four dogs returned covered in human shit. They rolled in it, they ate it, the works!

Booboostwo · 18/01/2020 08:50

DH and I were in bed with a vomiting and diarrhea bug so that morning I had opened the doors and let the dogs out to run around in the fields by themselves (all fenced in and our land). A little while later the GSD came into the bedroom, took one look at us and made the most awful vomit of undigested parts of a sheep. The stench was unbelievable...both DH and I vomited as well! Then we had to clean up and drag ourselves outside to find the other half of the poor sheep and dispose of it.

Disclaimer: I don't know where the sheep came from or how it died.

Same GSD a few years back. He was in the kitchen while we were out and had a V&D bug unknown to us. The kitchen was down one step from the living room and had a slight drop from the outside as well so when we returned we effectively found a pool of vomit and shit on the kitchen floor. Took hours to clean up.

Tibetan Terrier with diarrhea bug so bad I had to take her to the vets. The vet put her on the table to examine her and she did a projectile diarrhea which covered the table, the wall opposite and continued onto the ceiling. The vet, to his credit, was very cool about it even though there was shit dripping from his ceiling.

My old dog used to steal my worn knickers, I'd find her in a corner licking the gusset lovingly 🤮
