Does my dog win greediest dog award...

Or can yours beat him?

He's just eaten raw, frozen sausages out of a hot frying pan while they were cooking over naked flames.

He has a small red mark on the end of his nose but apparently burning himself was not enough to stop him from trying to eat the replacement sausages the second he thought I wasn't looking!

Some of these are funny. Feeling thankful that my dog is too small to reach the kitchen counter - he just sits there and stares longingly at whatever is on there.

I have a pug, there is a very good reason they are born too small to reach the kitchen counter. He will eat anything. He almost hyperventilates if you rustle any sort of packet.

Our large breed dog would definitely eat anything off the side but doesn't go in the kitchen as we have a really low baby gate that he could basically step over but he just won't try (but will jump over a 5ft garden fence to escape).

My stupid spaniel ate an entire fruit loaf yesterday, god knows how many raisins. No ill effects whatsoever . The cat must have got the loaf off the worktop (they have form for doing this)

QuintanaRoo · 27/03/2023 07:07

Oh and I’ve had to put kiddylocks on the kitchen cupboard as the cat worked out how to open them. I came down one morning to find a cupboard open and between them they’d eaten over 20 sachets of cat food, two bags of dog treats, a box of Alpen and half a giant bag of porridge oats. I suspect the fat spaniel did most of the eating.

They don't necessarily get instant effects from raisins though, its the linger term problems. Has your spaniel eaten raisins before? If so then obviously he's likely to be fine of course.

I am sure mine would just work their way through the lot also. My pug broke into the cat food one morning when my DS was supposed to be looking after him. He looked like a barrel for 3 days and didn't each much else.

My nan's old dog ate a full pack of butter then vomitted it all over my nan 😂

Her cat once dragged a whole cooked chicken in the kitchen window. It was still hot. No clue where she stole it from.

shiningcuckoo · 27/03/2023 07:28

My lab once ate half a bag of powdered milk for feeding lambs. Highly calorific. She looked like a barrel with legs for a while. The cat used to deliver rabbits he'd murdered to her outside bed. She once ate 2 large rabbits virtually whole skin and all in a few big gulps. 10 mins later she vomited them back up onto the living room floor and quickly ate them again. Foul.

She hasn’t eaten them before but is weeing and pooing ok. No changes in water intake, charging about and begging for food as usual

I don't want to say anything worrying but my vet told me that it is long term serious kidney issues that could be an issue with raisins, but obviously they are not toxic to all dogs. It may be worth a call. We had a similar incident with my dog.

Our English Springer ate an enormous cooked breakfast while it was on the top shelf of an oven that was still switched on keeping warm with the oven door ajar. DH had nipped to the loo before enjoying this huge feast and returned to find it all gone, DH thinks he was only gone for 3 minutes. We knew it was him and not our other dog because his whiskers had melted and the strong smell of singed fur was following him around. DDog had already eaten his breakfast. I got in from work to an incredulous DH and a smug dog. DDog died late last year and we often smile about his absolute greed, eating that breakfast must have really hurt. Fortunately we moved shortly afterwards and have wall ovens that even a spaniel cannot reach.

Lab stole a 500g bag of raisins off the worktop when I was unloading shopping. He ran off into the garden and ate the lot, bag included, in a few seconds.
I phoned the vet and was told to bring him in within an hour so they could induce vomiting. If we arrived later then that he'd need an IV drip and overnight stay.
We got there in the nick of time.

My 40kg malamute ate 3 raisins and they still said the same to us. They said if they are toxic to him then 1 was enough to do damage.

Love these greedy stories!

Old spaniel escaped and neighbour accused him of stealing their Sunday joint which had disappeared. We hotly denied it but later…. a long string emerged out of his nether regions Blush

Old Labrador ate everything - pants, money, bin contents… I once panicked that he had eaten a packet of paracetamol and rushed to the vet’s. They rang to say no paracetamol, but two socks, a Christmas decoration and “a variety of bits and bobs”.

Trickedbyadoughnut · 27/03/2023 09:39

My old dog once gnawed open a tin of rice pudding and ate it. He also chewed to the pocket out of a coat to get the horse treats in there, and through my handbag, the box and the plastic wrapper to eat an entire packet of (fortunately milk) chocolate digestives.

Then there was the time the two of them teamed up and ate a full box of dried porridge oats and drank two cartons of milk (DH had left them out, I don't think the dogs were particularly thinking about what would go nicely with the porridge oats). Consistent poos that day.

There many, many more times.

I had a decorator at my house who was very taken with my cat . The cat would sit and watch him working . He went to the shop to get a ham sandwich which he put on the side in its white paper bag. When he came to get lunch his sandwich was still in the bag but minus the ham ! Somehow the cat had managed to slide it out while he wasn’t looking

Sweetleftfood · 27/03/2023 09:52

My one has stolen sandwiches out of strangers kids hands in the park, incredibly embarrassing but very luckily the parents were very nice about it! One was just very worried that marmite may be harmful for dogs :-)

He has also learned that prams usually have snacks lying around so we avoid anyone with a pram

My dog ate his rope toy and DD ended up having to pull rope out of his arse like a bizarre magic trick whilst on a walk with him, she was not impressed.

I suspect my lab also has “a variety of bits and bobs” in her stomach at all times 😂😭

Found a load of baby wipes when cleaning up dog muck in the garden. I like to hope they were ones used to wipe food from faces rather than used at the other end.

Did have to stop her stealing a soiled nappy one time though....

dandersrevenge · 27/03/2023 19:44

My spectacularly greedy spaniel ate half a domino's stuffed crust pizza left out on the units once. I wasn't impressed. He also routed through the bins and found my discarded, used tampon and devoured it. Bloody dogs!!!

ImAGoodPerson · 27/03/2023 21:51

My dog is a poo eater, he even ate a poo bag with poo in once and pooed it out whole 🤮 he is seriously gross.
