When Teddy was a puppy, one day he was straining with his poop. I looked to see what was going on and, hanging from his butt was a mangled mess of a music cassette's tape.

I was so frightened, because it was a LOT. I worried it must be tangled in his intestines. Gently, I began to help him evacuate it and it just kep coming and coming and coming. He had eaten a friggin' cassette.



Another time, as a pup, he ate a little trinket box that had a red silk lining. He had a red flag of cloth hanging out his butt that looked like a miniature magician's handkerchief.



Recently - last year - he grabbed something off the street. It seemed to get sort of stuck on his teeth, but he wouldn't let me get it away. Later that night he barfed - badly. Barf, barf, barf.... The next day, poop. Poop. Poop. Poop.

It had an odor I had smelled before and it took me only a moment before the disgusting revelation hit me - my dog had ingested a damned urinal cake.

When Mafic was a puppy, she would get bored and eat stuff in the apartment. Mostly it was the TV guide. Only part of the paper she'd chew up.

Other items chewed and left for us to find barefoot:
 old tea bags at the top of the stairs
 newly planted bougainvillea
 new Oakley sunglasses
 Topsider leather shoe (g/f beat her with that one)

Items partially or wholly eaten:
 boat bumper
 tennis balls
 cat poop (strange dog delicacy?)

Her last day alive, I led her up into the hills so that she could get some cow poop before I took her to the vet for the last time.

Man, I miss that dog. Best trail partner I ever had. Sometimes she still visits me in my dreams. I know because I'll wake up with a smile on my face and my hands will still be cupped in the way that rubbed her ears the way she really loved.

dog, cat, and cow sh!t is nothing compared to your dog eating fresh human dook.

my ex-dog was a connoisseur. she gobbled up freshies "buried" by ice climbers, and even got into one of my own deposits, during a short period of time when my plumbing was funked, and the ex and I had to go in bags.

nothing quite like the next day's poop, fueled exclusively by your own. ultra gross.

My second golden retriever, Fossie, while still a puppy, ate the wooden knob off the gear shift lever in my 1977 Honda Civic leaving nothing but the threaded steel lever.

When she was really tiny I took her to Yosemite Valley. While eating lunch with a friend at Degnan's, I caught a glimpse of my friend passing something - I wasn't sure what - to the pup under the table. My friend was just finishing a chocolate sundae. Later, back home in Bishop I found a maraschino cherry, stem intact, in a limpid pool of gastric juice on my brand new rug.

As an adult she developed a penchant for surreptitiously wolfing down any food she might discover on party or picnic tables. In her haste, she never bothered to chew.

On one occasion she managed to get down a whole tamale in the husk only to later regurgitate the item whole, still wrapped in the husk.

Later, horse puckie became her favorite. I had to watch her closely while running with her. A friend offered to take her running one day and I said, okay, but don't let her near any horse poop. They returned and as my friend and I sat conversing and sipping beers in my living room with Fossie reclining at his feet, I asked if he managed to keep her poop-free. Oh yes, he replied adamantly. The fact that either he was lying or he was not very vigilant became apparent when she chucked-up a large load of twice-processed aromatic hay all over his shoes.

PhilB, that rubbing the dog's ears in your sleep made me tear up a bit; knock that sh#t off, will ya?

One of the worst things I've taken out of a dog's guts was an 8-day-old corncob. It had lodged, moved, lodged, moved, lodged, moved; nasty little abrasive plug. Resected a couple feet of small intestine.

Two weeks ago was maybe runner-up #1: 20' of fishing line wrapped around bleach-soaked paper towels. 6 enterotomies, managing an open abdomen for 24 hours, sweating bullets for a week waiting for complications. (I removed pieces of a plastic frisbee from this same dog's stomach and small intestine almost exactly 12 months before; bad habit, nicest dog.)

Best personal story.
Took the dogs for a hike into the woods late one night, they go off and do whatever they do, come back when I call, we go home and go to bed. 0200, Hank (keeper of the mojo) gets up, hucks violently and slinks off. It takes me at least 2 minutes to figure out he has just ralphed up 2 perfectly intact adult squirrels, minus their pelts. Someone had shot and skinned them, and Hank, in his haste to eat and run, swallowed them whole. Not a chew mark on them, just a little slimy; warm to the touch.
I had some pretty bizarre dreams the rest of that night.
Hank always checked over his shoulder when heading back to that particular spot in the woods, and I started smelling his breath when he came back.

Anti-freeze is probably one of the worst things a dog is likely to eat (drink).

They have maybe a week until liver failure does them in.

Kidneys, TIG. Liver might go after, if the dog lives long enough.

Not my dog, but a good one none the less. My old roommate had a great English bulldog, named Beauregard, aka Bubba D. He could chew a tennis ball in half in less than a minute, so he was only allowed a few select toys. Our other roommate bought him a dental toy, the kind with the spiked rubber wheels that spin and clean the dogs teeth. Well, he of course chewed the end off, and it vanished. 3 months later, we have a dog that cant hold anything down; brown foam comes up every time he eats or drinks. Yup, the end had moved through him to a point where it would go no further. Poor guy. The vet could not find the problem w/x-rays, so he did an exploratory surgery. Ended up removing 8 inches of "black" intestine from ole' Bubba D. He lived, but it was a close one.
