So I'm thinking of getting a dog. I haven't had one in a long, long time. The only one I had lived for 16 years and was the greatest dog in the world, for the most part. There were a few times I just wanted to kill her though. Like when she ate my thesis in grad school. Keep in mind this was back in the day of Smith Corona so there was no backup. That was a tough one.
Heard a few stories from friends recently involving an Iphone, TV remote, and a car key/alarm($95 for the key & $150 for the dealer to program it). Always funny is Cheech and Chong's "Up In Smoke" with the labradore eating his stash.
So let's hear it. What's the worst meal your pooch had??

While on a short hike, my buddy Jeff, (who had a thing for red chili burritos), got the 3 mile cramps. After doing the doodie, he comes over, and drags me over to take a look. You'd think I was his mom, and that he'd made me some macaroni art he was so excited. So, always one to show appreciation for a mans art, I took a gander. The biggest log I had ever seen. And bright red from the food coloring in those damn burritos. Up comes Max the wonder dog, and with typical golden retriever glee, gobbles it up. I mean he woofed it down. Of course then he wanted to give everyone kisses, and play fetch...
Yeah worst thing my dog ever ate.

A string mop.
After the vet bills the remains made a tangled mess in the lawn mower for about a month after.

tennis ball.
big bucks.
and they just throw the intestines back in like it was a wad of sphaghetti.

"oh, it'll sort itself out over a few years..."

i had a friend who used to get us stoned on acid, then he would poop in a dish and give it to his dog, and we were like tripin, man.... why do people do these strange things with their pets?

The strap to my brand new avalanche beacon.
Coulda killed him, it has a knot in it to this day, a water knot!
Now, it reminds me of the best dog I ever had, and that many have ever known. Maxwell Smart!
He also ate his own feces when I got him.
His previous owner kept him tied up too much, and she was always telling him how gross his poo was, so.
So I made sure I picked it up right away, with him watching, telling him, "You don't have to eat your poo, I give you good food, right? And I think it might be bad for you." And I always told him he was a good dog for shitting in the appropriate places.
He quit eating poo, in like a month or so, and I had a dog that would go on command, peepees and poopoos if he needed to.
It was easy to teach him not to crap on hiking trails.
But, that dog was so smart, and such a pig, I bet I have no idea what the grossest thing he ever ate was!

Had a cattle dog mutt growing up that ate practically everything: french doors, concrete, any books within reach, partway through a lamp cord (hearing him chew, I turned it on in the middle of the night and it exploded)...alas, it was a phase. Our current labradoodle hasn't ever had any chewing issues. He chews what we give him. It's almost as if it's bred into his genetics to know what to chew and what not to chew. Makes me think you get what you pay for.

If you let your dog run off leash while climbing or hiking, chances are the dog has eaten some incredibly gross things that you don't even know about. Though sometimes they're nice enough to roll in it first.

hey there say, all, my dogs never really chewed up anything, cause we always gave them chew bones and had big rooms, and put stuff up----but with patty ann marie, i do not have these options... i NOW understand the dreaded dog-dilema of chewing up stuff...
she chews any paper she gets her ol' mouth on!....
so far the worse, was some chocolate that i threw away... and then, some favorite pictures... and then, she nearly chewwed up my wallet and all my important papers in it...
whewwwwwwwww, oh my.... '
well, my hoouse is just too tiny of a rented place, and i cant get too much stuff out of her way.....
oh my...

Had a dog start eating glass once. He was an ex racing Greyhound.
Started with the sparkly Christmas tree ornaments.
Then he ate a guitar slide. That was not cool, it was sticking through the bottom of his craw, tore a big hole to the outside from under his tongue.
Took him to the vet and while the vet was treating him and taking x rays to see if more of it was in his gut, I asked him why a dog would do such a thing.
He did not even hesitate, he told me it was the taste of the blood in their mouth that gets them hooked, they think the glass is bloody food! And racing greyhounds are given blood meal.
How he figured this out, I don't know, unless he had the habit before we got him. I never thought he was that smart, oh what am I saying!
He also figured out that the remote controlled the TV, and he liked to watch TV. So he chewed up a few remotes before it got figured out to leave the remote on top of a cabinet he could not reach.
That led to him almost knocking over a bookcase one day to get to it.
When I got home, there was a National Geo on the floor, (along with the contents of the bookcase and the remote) opened to the center fold of a Cheetah in full stride, which Greyhounds resemble when they are running. It was wet and slightly chewed.
The TV got left on during the day after that.
Dumb humans.
I had to edit in the rest of the story:
Vet sent me home with some stuff I was supposed to swab into the hole in his jaw. Told me to shove it in there all the way and swab it out good so it did not heal from the outside first.
Somebody forgot to ask Blue if this would be OK with him, and I got bit! 2 canines in the thigh. OUCH!
I called the vet and asked him if he had been serious and if he now wanted to treat a dog bite?! He laughed so hard he dropped the phone.
