Our Boomer once ate the entire tray of
muffins from Sam’s Club – including the cardboard and plastic
wrapping. From:

many pyrs have a taste for baked goods. My first pyr, Jascha, loved
bread. Cheese bread was his favorite. He rarely condescended to
regular Pepperidge Farm sandwich bread, had to be the good homemade or better
bakery stuff. As he got way older, arthritic and blind, I would sometimes
leave a loaf on the counter just to see how he was doing. If it
disa-pyr-ed, he was ok, if not he really was not feeling well and needed a vet
visit. My female, Sweetie,
looks to be an angel but she is the current counter cruiser. Very clever
girl, but if the boys are in the crates and she is the only one loose, it is
obvious who the culprit is. Loves the couch too. She’ll fluff
up the pillows so she has a head rest and can stretch from one end to the
other. Ikea sells washable slip covers for their couches so I have
two sets. Amy From:

brownies, oatmeal cookies and cereal. I have never had a dog with a
sweet tooth before. Oh, and she eats out of cereal boxes too, if they are
not closed properly. Last week she
learned to open drawers and ate 4 of the six bagels in the bag. I make her good food so it is not as if she is starved. I think it is the thrill of the hunt..... deb On Jul 30, 2009, at 8:48 PM, Reedialer1@aol.com

as well as my pyr. I also have ScatMats which have electric charges and
are designed to keep the dogs out of the dining room. All 4 hounds will
never step on the mats, having done it ONCE and learned the lesson. My
pyr usually won't go in the room, HOWEVER, if there is something he feels he
truly needs in there, well... One example was the berry cobbler I made and set in
the dining room to cool. My pyr has a sweet tooth and I thought it would
be safe from him in there with the ScatMat. Nope, he braved the shock and
stepped on it anyway while I was out of the house, pulled the cobbler off the
dining room table and ate the whole thing. To his credit there was not a
stain on him or on the carpet and the only way I knew for sure it was him was
the tuft of white fur he left behind on the carpet. He never stops
amazing me! |
