Who wants to know what happens when a labrador eats a kilo of caster sugar?

[BellaGoth]

Don't worry, the dog is fine for now!

I got home from shopping this morning and 8 week old DD started crying for a feed. I quickly put away everything I thought was at risk from labrador investigation and sat to feed her. Ddog had a sniff round and then came to cuddle on the sofa. By the time I finished feeding DD it was time to collect DS from nursery.

It did not cross my mind for a second that ddog would split open the bag of sugar all over the living room carpet and eat the vast majority of it. I was wrong.

Obviously I called the vet straight away, who laughed told me he would be fine, just might be a bit hyper.

He threw up on our bed. Right through the duvet, through the mattress and onto the carpet. The super king sized mattress is a write-off.

On the up side, dh says we can go bed shopping at ikea. Deep joy!

Dear lord my dog is in the Daily Mail?

Beat name change now I suppose. Dammit I liked this one!

My cocker is a massive thief. A while a go he ate about 3 kilos of frozen stewing steak that were left on the side to defrost. He'd pulled the grill door down to climb up onto the work surface to get it. He was very sorry for himself for about a day.

Yes, sorry. Thought you might appreciate the heads up.

Lazy fucking journalists.

Hey! Dail Mail!

Since I've done your work for you why don't you cough up for a new bed for me?

Whilst staying in a very posh b & b with all white towels, bed linen etc, my westie managed to eat a pound of bacon and half a pound of butter from the fridge. She then spent the rest of the night shitting it all out over the white towels and bed linen. She didn't eat again for days.

Wow. They've now taken to using screenshots? Id be sacked for being so obviously shite in my role.

In High School a few of us baked some "special" brownies while on holiday. One friend took the leftovers home for safekeeping, however her black lab and beagle discovered them in her room. Lab went mad, chasing it's tail non-stop or the best part of a day, while the beagle cowered under the kitchen table completely paranoid
Our current DDog is rather particular about food though will make the most of an opportunity presented. She does like to show off her spoils first though, so will often pop her head around the corner with the contraband in her mouth, then relish the chase when you run after her. She also keeps snaffling raspberries from my canes in the garden!

So apparently the actual answer to this question is ..........
It ends up in the Daily Mail!!

Well fuckadoodle. Time for a Daily Heil hating namechange.

My dog loves the raspberries in the garden. We have two rows that make a lovely hidden tunnel of opportunity for her. She comes out with a bright pink face and pink blobs all along.
She does try to style it out, but she ain't fooling no one.

My friends cat once ate a whole load of weed she had drying. It laid on top of the lizard tank she had (where it was warm) with a huge cat smile on it's face for about 2 days. The cat was unharmed as it was the one notorious for living mainly on rats and mice so had a stomach lining of pure steel.

She had 7 cats and they all found out how to break into the fridge in a co-ordinated operation (they were like a bloody army those cats) and stole virtually the whole contents while she was out, so child lock on fridge was fitted. The best one was when they broke into the tank of locusts she had to feed the lizards. We were finding locusts for weeks, but the cats had fun as there were all these fun interactive cat toys.

Otherwise we had a lab when I was a kid who divested the Christmas tree of all chocolate decorations, lesson learned for my parents.

Current cat has so far only eaten flies mainly and been sick, but she will try and eat any human food left for long enough within reach so trying to make sure she doesn't get any, especially as she managed to tear open and eat a whole pack of Dreamies (greedy little sod).

Oh my gosh mumsnet should charge the DM for taking their stories. What a rip off. Those DM journos are lazy!

A friend's dog ate her sat nav not too long ago. Someone else pointed out that at least he'd never get lost.

Bark once for left, twice for right...

My parent's dog loves chewing on mum's PJ's and wrapped lollies. My dog, a border collie is an eating machine.

On her first night in my house she ate most of a pork roast. Two weeks later she ate a box of carry food after breaking into a cupboard and had diarrhoea for days. She still breaks into the bin to eat used sanitary products and last week was caught eating packing peanuts.

Thank goodness she has never had to go to the vet. We have an awesome vet service down here which readily gives advice over the phone so I'm very, very lucky.

I came home one day to finally French Bulldog had helped herself to a bag of Haribo Starmix and eat the entire contents 😕

My cat has a weakness for used earplugs, he is on DD's bed every morning, ready to pounce the moment she removes them. They are bright pink and yellow, so dead easy to spot his poo in the garden... Also will wriggle his way up to head height for a cuddle, NOT. Ever had your ears cleaned out by a raspy cat tongue? Worst thing is when you wake up in the morning with a cat tongue in your ear. EUGH!

I've not read the full thread but just had to drop by and share a list of things my boxador puppy has eaten: -

Fixodent
raw bacon and sausage
pancakes
baby potatoes (in his defence he didn't actually eat these just nibble every single one)
all our garden plants
a box of cookies
the contents of the food bin
the lid of the food bin

the list literally goes on

appy cats love earwax, the weird fuckers.

Anyone with kids and animals should have mattress protectors on their beds!

nanny no mattress protector was going to help against a kilo of sugar absorbed into a whole bowl of water! About 4 pints worth...

I now have a mattress protector on every.single.bed since my poor dog shat herself on the bed this summer, having had 1 raw meatball. She has a delicate constitution.

At one time we had two labs who were left on their own for 20minutes twice a day.
In this time, over a few weeks they managed to lift a carpet, strip chunks from the wooden floor, ate a bannister, ate all the kitchen cupboards, tried to eat a hole through plaster, ate wooden steps on the stair, ate the metal that is used on wall corners then is plastered over, open and emptied drawers, hidden anything left on the kitchen wortop i their beds.

It was like a tag team, the bastards, but so lovely in other ways!

Our lab ate lots of interesting things. One christmas when left unattended for 12 seconds she managed to open and finish an entire limited edition 'bucket' of Maltese's. Vet said there wasn't a high enough percentage of chocolate to be a problem....she wasn't sick.

My jack russell got onto the worktop and ate an entire fresh cooked chicken from beside the cooker. Small dog...the ENTIRE thing. He also demolished a graze box as it had been kindly pushed through the letterbox for him. Trip to vets and induced vomiting due to dried fruit. Vet nurse glaring at him as she sifted through puke counting raisins.... He was suitable sorry for himself on the way home after that.

However, I classify the jack russell as a 'fussy eater'. Labradors are walking waste disposal units.

Far too many to list but the Christmas candle that led to glittery shites was a highlight

DDog (terrier) ate a pack of those little stretchy rubber men bought for party bag fillers. For several days after her poos had little heads, arms and legs at random jaunty angles.
