What's the worst thing your dog has ever eaten?

SquirrelDog has only eaten things like discarded paper or packaging when out and about as a pup but now is A Very Good Girl <holds breath and crosses fingers>
But my friends tell me tales (tails?!) of their precious pups eating the family roast dinner off the kitchen side or half of the living room wall plaster 😂

Share your stories please!

My pug loves the bogies from my baby!

Human shit, from the dirty bastards who thought it was ok to take a dump in the sand dunes even though there was a public loo 100 metres away 🤮

I live in rural Scotland, there's so many places I can't go in the summer as there's human poo everywhere which is super tasty to my dog 🤢

weegiemum · 11/12/2024 20:58

Cat sick. Before it had a chance to cool down!!

This thread is making me feel so much better about my own dog - thanks OP!

My dog likes socks (smelly ones only), poo from any species except dog (goose poo is a favourite), and anything dead and decaying. The worst (other than human poo - thanks dirty campers / campervanners...) was long gone off bait from a lobster pot. That made him very sick for the rest of the day. Although he still tried to rob another lobster pot less than 24 hours later!

Husky once ate a flip flop.. All except the toe post.
Her partner in crime ate 5 mince pies and 2 advent calendars one year.... Cast iron guts obviously..

Another memory, and I don't know if it counts?
First springer tore whole strips of woodchip wallpaper off the wall and ate them.
He also chewed his way through the wall, out of the kitchen and into the downstairs loo - like something from The Great Escape. Only took him 2 hours!

Golden retriever:
On our way to the ferry in the camper, we stopped in a layby for a snack couple of hours out of Portsmouth. Younger Ddog slipped her collar and managed to gobble what smelt like human poo. No ill effects on her pre-ferry walk- all good!

We were booked on the overnight ferry- as we were in the queue to board, her tummy started to makes noises, but we could do nothing as we were directed onto the ship.
We could smell the van before we got back to it the following morning. She had managed to cover herself, our very upset oldie Goldie and the inside of the van.

We drove off with the windows wide open (unsurprisingly passport control quickly backed off) and stopped as soon as possible to clean up. Luckily we had access to water and cleaning stuff- I had to throw out all the dog beds and mats and my husband's shoes which were full of shit.

We've still got her-she will still eat anything, even at nearly 12.

I thought I saw her eating some grass in the undergrowth. The next day a plastic green poo bag was half hanging out of her arse. I had to pull it out.

LovelyLittleBitofSquirrel · 11/12/2024 21:16

@Stormyweatheroutthere
But they're so bloody gorgeous you can't get mad at them! 😍

@SirSidneyRuffDiamond (I'm really hoping that is your dog's Sunday best name) of course it counts! That's what inspired my post, my friend's cocker spaniel ate half a wall of plaster off the living room and some skirting board too.
I'm very impressed with your springer getting through the woodchip wallpaper, that stuff is practically welded on and is a bugger to remove! 😂

Mum’s golf glove
3 face masks
5 mince pies off the bird table
A rubber glove
Copious amount of loo roll

All items accounted for 🤮 💩

My old manager's dog ate a box of lightbulbs.

Miraculously it was fine. I was baffled as to why it didn't stop after the first one.

HappiestSleeping · 11/12/2024 21:21

I don't actually know what it was he ate, but when he threw it up a few hours later, it stank. I properly wretched cleaning it up. He was sick the next day too, and looked very sorry for himself.

I just wish he could associate eating whatever it was with him being sick.

NeedSomeComfy · 11/12/2024 21:23

My parents' dog ate a sanitary towel he fished out of my bin when I was a teenager. The bin was one of those which have a lid that you have to push a swinging lid to open. It was Christmas and he came down the stairs looking very pleased with himself, with the lid of the bin round his neck like a necklace and the pad in his mouth. My whole extended family saw it. I wanted to die!

MrsSethGecko · 11/12/2024 21:28

Jack Russell here.

A dead magpie, and threw up the head and beak in my bed
A whole 4lb roast chicken
A plastic life-sized crab
A packet of hair bands
A school book bag
Squirrel poo, which made her vomit in the living room a la The Exorcist
My hair from the bathroom bin.

1kg of pick and mix
the entire contents of a freezer, which judging by the smell was mainly garlic
many multicoloured balloons

things I have had to make cats (who are normally discerning!) vomit up:
a used condom
an earplug

things that passed through without issue:
a skewer of chicken
an AirPod
loads of sand

things we had to go to surgery to retrieve:
a bag of dog shit
an entire bathmat
A little chair
1kg of grass
a pair of knickers not belonging to the owner
tampons
the string around meat

a needle and thread

A live land crab

My reasonably small dog is famous for her dietary indiscretions.

The cat's litter box is just a buffet.
My Invisalign retainer.
The centres out of two loaf pans of banana bread momentarily set down on kitchen island. She was loaf shaped for about a week.
Endless things pulled off counters-she is a great leaper.

We had a barantia bin-the kind you tap to open-and she figured out how to do it and was found standing completely in the bin just enjoying the contents.

We can never leave anything within reach.

oh and my old dog and cat were in cahoots-she knocked an entire ham off of the counter and they enjoyed it together!

Xiomara22 · 11/12/2024 21:36

My granny’s socks in a ball and one of those suet bird feeder balls. Both ended up with him having the injection to make him sick and granny got her socks back :)

ineedtowomanup · 11/12/2024 21:39

Drank goat piss straight from the goat.

CrushingOnRubies · 11/12/2024 21:42

Fox poo

Which she then became constipated and had colitis as a result. £70 vet bill and the discovery that her favourite food is special food for poorly pups

She also threw it up

MrsMitford3 · 11/12/2024 21:44

Just remembered my last dog ate all the poo out of the litter box and then threw it up alll over the house. It was the most horrific thing I ever smelled and I also was sick 😂

Fartooold · 11/12/2024 21:49

Good God, I always thought my dogs were disgusting till I read this thread🤣
I'm down to one now, but when i still had two Labs, they worked as a fine tuned team to catch rabbits.
And they ate them😮
They would go into undergrowth where I couldn't get to them and chow down.
Re reading this, they probably were horrendous.... I'm down to one old lady who couldn't catch cold now😁
