Sully 3 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi all, so Lexy ( 6 Months Hancock 3/4 GH x 1/4 BC) has taken to eating......everything and anything, sticks, paper, plastic, string, shoe laces pretty much anything she can get her teeth round, please dont think this dog isnt getting treated correctly, she eats very well, some of the bits and pieces ive found in pooh is worrying to say the least, so why is she doing it, is it puppylike or something more serious ? as usual your help is greatly appreciated, Craig and Lexy Quote Link to post

You have to have eyes in the back of your head ! Keep everything out of reach and give it a decent size bone to chew on. You are lucky that these foreign bodies appear to be passing thru'; If something gets stuck in there, you are looking at a big vet bill at best, the death of the pup at worst !! Cheers.

Sully 3 Posted December 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi, Thanks for your quick replies, as for bordum, I dont see how we can stimulate her anymore than we do already, she's very rarely alone, she's not eating these objects when she's on her own ! another one for you......Horse or cow shite !!! loves it, eats as much as she can !, regually has a good bone, Craig Quote Link to post

Sully 3 Posted December 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Yes but, im in a sticky situation, she has loads of toys, but she picks bits off them and eats it! so kinda defeating the object, I hope that Im coming across correctly, she's very well looked after, sleeps with me and the wife, on her bed in front of the radiator and goes out twice aday usually ! er nice big garden for her to run round, the reason Ive brought this to your attention is yesterday while I was working the wife caught her with a stick wedged sideways in her mouth !!! what would of happened if she'd have done that when we were both at work ! NIGHTMARE !!! Craig Quote Link to post
spiritofold 0 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 My lurcher raids the bin at every oppertunity, she's a bugger! Anything in there that has a whiff of food about it gets taken outta the bin, licked and then chewed up. I've seen bits of foil and small pieces of food wrappers in her turds before. I guess at just over a year old she's still a pup and will steal anything thats laying around to chew on. She has plenty to occupy her in the way of bones and chew etc, the bin and its contents win over everytime though... Quote Link to post
