I had some rum chocolate truffles that I kept upstairs but I was trying to stop myself eating them so I put them downstairs out of temptation's reach..

That day the dog chose to make an unscheduled escape from the kitchen and find these truffles.. she didn't even eat them there, she took the packet back to her bed in the kitchen and ate most of them in comfort before being discovered !

These are the type of rum truffles in question..

This is the guilty dog in question..

This is probably the face she made when she found them !

One of her past 'achievements' was eating a leftover kebab with lots of chillis in it.. the chillis came out the other end.. some eaten and some intact.

So, what things of yours has your dog or pet eaten ?

Not my dog but my mother in law's dog ate in 1 week whilst we were visiting for XMas a few years back:

1 large tub of margerine
1 bunch of bananas with skins on
2 large home made fish pies
1 bag of chocolates that my daughter then aged 3 had made as XMas presents.

O.M.G.

Is it really a dog or a small alligator ???

You can understand most of those things but a tub of margerine ?????

Are you sure it was the dog and not just your bad consience talking here? You're feeling bad you ate all them truffles all the the same time, don't you?
Blaming a defenseless dog, bah. You even placed the evidence in it's basket to make a clear case out of it



Hey... the image can't rid the image!!! At least some of the meal was saved then. Let's hope the truffles stay intact too so they didn't go to waste.

I want my lawyer...

Mg American Staffy, "Zeus" has cost me alot of money in the things he has chewed up....

90 dollar laptop power cord
4 pairs of the Missus' shoes
Guitar lead
2 Pairs of my thongs (an Australian Icon)
So many pairs of clothes, pants etc....

And now I have a 7month old Son, the dog tries to take his toys and claim them, every time I catch him and tell him off, he gives me this look....

Let's face it.. they were the most expensive items weren't they ?



There's nothing you can do when they give you 'the look' is there ?

My dog takes the trash every time that she can enter to the house... she also ate the cheese some times...

1... Yea your spot on about the shoes. Good thing was it reduced her shoe wardrobe...always a good thing, from my perspective anyway.

2... "The Look" is crippling....in fact if memory servs me correct, The Look is how I got my Missus, and alcohol of course

Haha, I'm risking life and limb from my own missus by publicly agreeing with you but hey, why not ?

'The Look' is a multi purpose tool which is crucial in the arsenal of any 21st century man

HAHA.... Ah, when in doubt, pull "The Look" out...

G.A.B.S for life!

Oh my.. this sounds inconvenient..

She saw this post... I got another kind of 'Look' from her !

Haha.... some many inappropriate responses I could post, lets see If i can gently get this across...

She gave you the look that tells you... "You know those strong fingers you have from playing guitar?....Well your gonna need them for a while"

No man.. it was more like 'You know those fingers that you need for playing guitar ? They might get trapped in a door !'

Ouch.....That's no good haha

These evil creatures...

I hope you get your chocolates back Ben...

I now feel the need to eat some myself. Thanks!

I used to share a Flat with my best friend and she has 2 Jack Russells that ate one of my Elecrtical Testers (Expensive one too), one of my 'Support your local Hells Angels' vest, several pairs of my Shoes/Boots and a couple of towels!

Well, the only way I'd get them 'back' is if I'm willing to pick through their...umm.. well, you know...





Are you sure it wasn't your flatmate eating them ???

Now there's a thought.......

I had a Beagle ...he was a real thief ..they're known for that! Even the neighbours caught him stealing food at their house!!

unfortunately he passed away couple of weeks ago...lots of memories from that lil guy..

A string. It took a while for it to come out all the way. It was gross!

BEN! Chocolate is toxic to dogs! Seriously man. They can get really ill from it. It it's a small amount and a decent size dog it's probably fine. But here is a link about it. I had a relative lose a pet this way.

Haha, he sounded like a great character.... sorry to hear he passed away.



Not a guitar string ????




Thanks Todd.. yes I did know that dogs and chocolate were mutually exclusive ... although I swear Whizzy has a stomach that can tolerate anything. It amazes me, the things that dog has eaten. But rest assured, no more accidental choc for her !!!
