martin 332 Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 I have seen my whippet and my terrier eating blackberries of the bush since they were pups,but,today I couldn't believe my eyes when they were both eating sloes straight of the branch.At first I thought they were just smelling them,and on closer inspection they seemed to be biting them one after the other,but,when I looked even closer the whippet at least was actually pulling them off and eating them.I guess we have all tried the dreaded sloe at one time or another,and,we all know how dry and sour they are,so,why the hell would she be eating them?? Has anyone heard of it before? Martin. Quote Link to post

My JRT swallows em whole, plus he loves rading the orchard for peaches. Skye my whippet bitch will eat anything, and i mean anything. It's quite funny watching her roll her lips and blow down her nose when she's eating leftover madras and keema naan Although, her farts are proper kronk Quote Link to post
