That's What I Think 6/15/2012 7:07:32 AM
Okay my new puppy is eating gravel. What is up with that? This morning when he pooped it was mostly rocks. This certainly scared me! So I go on line and find out this is not uncommon, but shouldn't be allowed to continue. I mean think of it...those rocks are going through his digestive system and out the other end..Whole!
Is this painful for the puppy? So we are on a campaign to end the eating of the rocks. We also heard of a spray called Bitter Apple that you spray on just about anything and it tastes repugnant to the dog and he/she will stop chewing and/or eating various items in your home! Least of which is gravel. He is quite the chewer and has ruined my favorite pair of thongs (flip flops. In my day we callend them thongs until that underware came out that goes up the crack of your ass.), my "nurse" shoes, my phone charger, Pauls shoelaces, and now the underside of our box spring!
How weird it is to see this happen. It gives me the creeps! Sill as that sounds...Yuck!
Anyway today is keep puppy close at hand and stop him from enjoying rocks!
