She ate the whole pizza !

With Niko around nothing unattended is safe, he can reach the back of any counter and lays his head on the dining room table while we eat

I used to have a pit bull that used to eat anything he could reach but never got sick. He ate two brand new cubes of pool chalk. He was crapping green for a week. He got a hold of a tube of neosporin. Ate everything but the silver tip. I took him outside to crap one time and noticed he was having trouble going. Realized he had something hanging out of his butt. I grabbed a paper towel and started pulling on it. It was about an 8 inch long strand of carpet. He was fine after I did that. I caught him licking the oil stains in the driveway. I had to watch him around regular food also. I was bringing groceries in. Went back out to get more, I come back in and he is tearing into my smoked turkey breast. I smacked him on his *** as hard as I could. My hand hurt but he looked at me like "is that all you have". Great dog only if you gave him 24 hour attention.
 
The breeder we got our golden retrievers from is a close friend who also watches our dogs in her home when we go out of town. She had a dog, mother to our current pup, who was a notorious counter surfer. Sometimes the breeder wouldn't be home when we'd go to pick up our dogs, but we knew where she kept a key so we'd let ourselves in, drop off her payment - cash in an envelope, usually a couple hundred bucks - and pick up our dogs. We learned not to leave the envelope on the counter or her dog would eat it.

One of ours helped herself to half a plate of Christmas cookies sitting on the coffee table when everyone wandered into another room. Another time her brother ate about a 1/4 stick of sliced pepperoni we had set out for a cheese and cracker snack. We blame ourselves as much or more than the dogs because we left food at nose level unattended. These incidents were the exception though and they were really good dogs who had many more opportunities to steal food and didn't and they never took anything off the counter.

These stories sound familiar. Maybe your dogs are related to @68gtxman's dog.
The wife came home one day and said “where are the Hershey kisses?” She had about two pounds in a big candy dish on the coffee table. She looked at me and asked if I ate them. When I said no, she started screaming that someone broke into the house and ate them all. I told her this couldn’t be true as none of the door locks were broken and nothing else was taken, so it wasn’t likely that anyone broke in just to eat Kisses. So the wife looked at the dog, quietly sitting nearby the whole time and the dog looked nice, calm and innocent. My wife picked up the crystal bowl, held it up to the light and saw “tongue prints” on it. The next #2 the dog left in the yard was filled with aluminum foil wrappers. She never did show any signs of hyperactivity or distress.

I think Rebel ate a birds nest.........he was having trouble taking a dump one night so I got out a flash light, he had what appeared to be braided straw hanging out of his butt....... I grabbed a latex glove and gave it a pull, it was like a rope and slid right out.....lmao......I almost puked; he said Thank You, and did a few laps around the yard

:lol:
.....shoot, some people fly all the way to Thailand to get that service!
 
....so, when we first got Jack, the heeler.....the kids were very small, and decided on Thanksgiving that the dog needed some turkey, and both proceeded to feed him "scraps" while the rest of us were outside. Needless to say the dog ingested about 2 pounds of bird, stuffing and cold greasy gravy.....to finish it off, they let him have a slice of pumpkin pie....I think that's what came out first....in front of all of the guests, quickly followed by the bird, stuffing....dog food bits and pieces of my wife's shoes...which she then ran off to see where indeed shredded. Ah....the memories.
 
My Sister came to visit and brought a Amaretto cake.She set it on the step in the garage.Went to get it after about a 1/2 hour and it was gone. My 6 lbs Chihuahua ate the whole thing. He didn't move for the next 24 hours and was high as a kite.
 
Kern your an "enabler" you put stuff on counter and she eats it. Doing the same thing over and over......... you know rest.
Very funny, dogs do the dammest things.:rofl:

Mine ate a bunch of oranges that the tree trim guy had yet to pick up. 2800.00 vet bill. New house rule is if has DNA it can’t come in.
 
You wouldn't think a 2 lb prairie dog would get a hold of stuff to eat but man, do they ever. They get into everything if they smell food! One thing I cannot eat before letting them out of the cage is peanuts because they won't leave me be until they get some. Thing is, they shouldn't have but one peanut every few days at the most and I like to grab a handful just about every day.
 
Yeah....Why do some dogs take off running after a crap? Are they trying to leave the scene of a "Ca Ca Crime" ? A fecal felony?

I can't vouch for what a dog does but I was over at the girl friend's house one day and she had a tom cat named Timmy. The cat was in the litter box and all of a sudden he came running through the house and stood by the door wanting outside. I asked her what the hell got into him? A minute later the whole house was filled with the most horrifying smell that could have knocked a buzzard off of a **** wagon. I'm a old farm boy and I have never smelled anything as bad as that smell. Timmy wanted out of the house in a bad way and so did we!

Had a Husky one time that ruined Thanksgiving dinner for my family. I still can't believe that dog was able to eat most of that bird that quickly!
 
I thought that turkey was harmful to dogs.
 
I'm lucky my last 3 dogs/Labs
(other than my foster dogs, 9 in 12 years)
were trained not to touch food, put on the kitchen counter
or dinning room table or the coffee table etc.

Labs are really food/treat driven too

I don't trust the foster dogs,
they aren't trained like my normal dogs are
most of them learn quick too, it's a No No

I can leave stuff out almost anywhere, as long as it's not too long
I will come back & they will be sitting or laying right there,
drooling, but not touching or eating it
same with treats & tricks/training time,
they will wait until I say OK, then it's gone

I have set down a full on steak dinner, pizza or whatthefuckever
in-front of my last 3 labs, if it's on a table or counter
they won't touch it, but if it hits the floor it's gone

now if it was like a hour later,
they may take it off a coffee table or end table,
if it was left there too long
or I was stupid :poke: enough, too long to temp them

---------------------------------------------------------------------

well my late dog, a Lab/Duke 30+ years ago,
ate a whole bucket of KFC,
he was a youngster, less than 2, prior to a MNF game,
before people showed up
(I was out tending the BBQ or out by the pool IIRC)
he took & ate it off the front-room coffee table

It was supposed to be appetizers, before for the main meal
we always had something, pizza sometimes too, sometime tacos
or chips & salsa, or a French bread carved out with spinach dip etc.
we always had a huge 4-7 course meal, at about 1/2 time
for like 20 people

we had MNF parties even when there wasn't any football
I had the go to pad for parties

Anyway, he wore that KFC bucket around his neck for a week or so,
he never touched anything on the table ever again
he'd lay down if he even saw a KFC red & white bag or bucket
(I think it was actually the smell, he recognized)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've never-ever had any of my personal dogs
take anything off the kitchen counter or stove

they lay down in the kitchen, trained that way
unless I want them to do something, like sit or beg or shake etc.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I did have a freaken' cat (Manx) take a whole salmon filet
right out of the frying pan, as it was cooking,
it was maybe 30 sec.'s I was out of the room
he was never allowed on the counters, ever, even
after then/that, he was no longer even allowed in the kitchen

A Squirt bottle works wonders
he'd avoid the kitchen like it was quick sand, after that day

I have a sister, her dog a Shepperd
would open the freezer door (side by side fridge)
take what ever it wanted & chow down
frozen, in the box or wrapper & all

she showed me some video, she hid a go-pro camera
to find out how she was doing it

sneaky little bitch
 
Well you guys had to go and jinx me!!
Neither of my current two dogs have snagged any people-food without authorization...until tonight! I walked into the kitchen just in time to see the German Shedder standing tall at the counter, grabbing one of the fresh biscuits my wife had just made...I yelled, she dropped to the floor and cowered, but never stopped devouring it...it was pretty funny. She won't look directly at me now...guilty!
