[nagdu] eating unmentionables was Lisa and All: Bill of Rights

[Julie J]

You guys need to have a puppy in the house!

Holy cow, I can't even remember all the stuff Monty and Belle ate or chewed 
up when they were younger.  I do remember the absolutely most disgusting 
thing Monty ever picked up was a dead bird.  I had no clue that's what he 
had picked up until I plucked it out of his mouth.  A half a bottle of 
antibacterial dish soap later I was no longer grossed out with having my 
hand attached to my arm.  It was a week before I would eat a sandwich or 
potato chips.

He's also eaten a sock, feather pillows, a stuffed bear, a blanket, a couch 
cushion, oh and a dead snake once.  Both dogs love to eat bugs, especially 
these grasshopper things.

I'm so glad they are grown up and don't do that stuff anymore.  I think I've 
just talked myself out of ever getting another puppy! LOL
