Dogs....soap

[The Mass]

After reading Northy's "Perspective" thread.

I thought I would brighten or give yers all a little light hearted laugh.

How can a dog eat a bar of soap and

A) not be sick
B) have poo like candles?

Why you ask, one of dogs at the weekend managed to get into the study and eat a bar of "Imperial Leather"???

Bear in mind that these dogs are Lab's (they'll eat anything, and I mean anything).
They have before today eaten:

A bucket of coal (which cost us loads of money, as the dog was in the vets for a week)
An un-cooked leg of pork, including plastic tray (If it were you or me, we'd be pretty much dead now).
An un-cooked chicken (as above)
Numerous skirting boards.
Sorry ladies :oops: - Tampons - as they were next to the bag of skittles :roll:
(another visit to the vets)
A tub of cold "Vindaloo" curry, including the extra chilli's :shock: with no effect on their rear area.

I could go on and on..with numerous other things, but the above is what springs to mind at the moment...

Does anyone have any similar experience with Labrador's? or any other kind of mutt?

Bar of soap----no problem for a Lab.(May stop him swearing for a week or two :D )

When I was a kid you quite often used to see small white dog poos on the pavement.

But I haven't seen any for years

Why is this :?:

manufacturers used to add chalk and various other bits of rubbish to bulk up the weight of the cans and bulk up their profits.

apparently

Sad to admit that I know this, but it's to do with the improvement in dog food over the years. The white stuff showed that the dog had a lack of something or other in their diet (can't remember now as it was a long time ago that I read about it!). I believe it's the same for humans if you eat a bad diet. Except that you don't see ours on the pavement. Hopefully!

Ahaaa...Nagai...me arl mucka.

Can you confirm the soap incident please?

Or don't oyu know about it?
Twas a small incident at the weekend, and said bar of soap was replaced.

Kev was astonished that they could actually eat soap :shock:

BTW: I have found the yellow bits for Kev's pump...have a guess where they were?

In the dog bed... Untouched :shock:
They mustn't have liked the colour, see as they well know too...Blue is faster :wink:

Yes, it's Imperial Leather not cheapo stuff - you know!! :lol:

[Nagai]

Yes, those stupid hounds (well one of them!), did eat a bar of Imperial Leather. Funnily enough they left the Hai Karate that was next to it alone. Taste eh? I was impressed by the fact that they ate the label as well!

Great that you have found the bits for Kevs ladys pump. Chester was obviously full after the soap!

My baby sister ate a cigar.
My labrador used to hunt for and eat birds in the garden, whole. Maybe one or two feathers left over.
After my sister pooped out the cigar and her very, very messy nappy was put in the bin. My lab, knocked the bin over and ate the nappy...

[UlsterSV]

I like to eat soap too :?

My brother has a ten-year old labrador, Freddie, whose tastes run to things like the rubber ring round the washing machine's door and cow pats. He occasionally makes his way into my nieces' bedrooms in order to rummage through their school bags for packets of crisps or biscuits. Then there was the time he got into the garage and found a big bag of dried food. He chewed through the paper and then began to gorge himself. The dried food expanded in his stomach, so poor Fred had to stop to vomit. Once that was over, he began eating once again ... and so on.

On one particular occasion, though, he excelled himself.

Maggie, my brother's wife, had dumped the old oil and filter into the rubbish bin in the kitchen one evening. After everyone had headed up to bed, the dog got himself into the kitched, knocked the bin over and feasted on the rancid chip oil, whilst pushing the contents of the bin around the stone-flagged floor.

The next morning, my brother made his bleary way into the kitchen and, as he put it, "skated across the kitchen floor like Torvill & Dean." He cleaned the mess up and got off to work a bit late. In the rush, he forgot to mention to his wife what the dog had been up to.

Later that same day, Maggie takes their two daughters and the dog into Marlborough to do some shopping, leaving Freddie in the back of their Vauxhall Cavalier estate. Whilst they were gone, the rancid chip fat is rapidly making its way from one end of Fred's digestive system to the other. The poor dog knows that it is very, very bad to go for a dump in the back of the car, so he crawls over the back seat in a vain attempt to find a way out but is unable to open a door due to a lack of opposable thumbs.

Maggie and the kids eventually get back to find the dog has relived himself and with the result that there is now a huge load of half-digested, rancid chip fat sitting on the car's front passenger seat. Needless to say, they sold the car a few months later because no-one was keen to sit next to the driver.

You don't get this problem with cats, you know.

dumped the old oil and filter into the rubbish bin in the kitchen one evening.

Why was I thinking engine oil and filter? I suppose that could have been worse!

Sometimes it's dogs trying to eat things that causes problems.

Some friends got a doberman pup last year - on new year's eve it tried to reach the leftover turkey that was sat on top of the stove. It somehow turned the (electric) stove on, unfortunately causing the kitchen to set on fire. Luckily no-one was hurt, including the doberman and their other dogs & cats... :shock:

once my dog ate a whole xmas cake and a whole box of milk tray after he found his way onto the dinner table.

he did have a funny bum after,

[Speedy]

My first boxer,Burt,used to eat everything and anything.....
Christmas tree,
Cow-pats,
Skirting-board,
Door-frames,
and once he ate THROUGH my Mum and Dad's Bed,when I say through I mean up from undernieth,to the top surface,smack in the middle!
It looked like an alien had burst through it,like John Hurt's chest in 'Alien'! Springs and stuffing everywhere. I found it hillareous!!!

My second boxer,Taz,was better,and did'nt really damage or eat anything other than his and everyone elses dinner!

They both used to drink out the toilet though.

Burt and Taz R.I.P. I miss them SO much. :cry:

I agree that Labs are mobile dustbins!
My 2yr old black dog once found his way into the fridge... someone else in the family (dad) put some rope on the cupboard where the dogs bowl and toys are kept, trained the dog to pull the rope and fetch his bowl and toys upon voice command. Mention "dinner" now, and wee "Diesel" simply pulls on his rope, and fetches his bowl :P then sits, drools and watches his bowl until it's put on the floor.

Until some joker put the rope on the fridge door as a joke. I came home one day, and found the dog had eaten all the gammon, a nice 8oz steak, half a tin of beans in a bowl (covered with clingfilm), two packs of butter and half a gallon of milk. Not to mention a 6 pack of eggs and a half pound of cheese... gorged himself stupid..

I found the mess, and the dog cowering in his bed with his tail between legs giving me the "sorry master" look. :evil: :evil: That night he was right sick at the front door just as some guests of mum's arrived..... the stench of the puke was not healthy...

We used to have a Samoyed, and he would eat anything. He especially liked dirty socks and knickers and used paper tissues!

However, one chritsmas, he excelled himself. He managed to find ALL my christmas chocolates and stuff, and ate the lot. Yes, like your Rottie, wrappers and all. He left only one, and that was the only reason we knew he had eaten them in the first place. Otherwise, I would have thought that I had lost the bag or something!!! That, and the dog immediately went and hid from us when we came back into the house!!! :D
