"Bone" Apetit!

 

This was Holly's diet today:

 

* Three cups of kibble

 

* One golf glove

 

* One doggie arthritis pill

 

* One package of South Beach chocolate chip cookies (wrapper left on the living room floor).

 

I'm glad she's watching her weight.

 

During the summer, she likes to cool off with a Big Gulp from 7-11. 

 

 

 

Michael: Speaking of, here's that fluffy ball that Bethie mentioned in her comment. Yummy:

"What about the stuffing from her plush ball. A girl needs her fiber!"

"This story made me laugh out loud. I'm sure the whole family remembers driving up the street around Christmas time and noticing the glitter of tinsel in our dog Roxy's latrine under the dogwood trees. She only ate the tinsel off the tree as high as she could jump--about 4 feet. The latrine was also the site of indigestible pieces of underwear lace. Roxy really had a sweet tooth. When she weighed only about 6 or 7 lbs she ate a 2-lb. bag of M&Ms (including the bag). One of her most memorable meals was half a German chocolate cake that she had to eat "on the fly," by leaping by and grabbling bites from a cake that had been pushed to the back of a counter. Like Mishka, Roxy also loved fiber--for years we would find the brass ferrules from pencils on the floor, only the ferrules, no wood, erasers or lead. She didn't care for metal, though. After weeks of being scared by a wind-up black plastic spider, she must have attacked it after it had wound down. All we ever found was the little wind up motor. Other metal she avoided included the foil wrappers on sticks of gum. Whenever one of the kids left an open purse with gum, we'd find Roxy chewing away on a whole pack; we'd find all the wrappers under the sofa (along with banana peels, the only part of the garbage she passed up). My current dog (Seabiscuit, a greyhound) is incredibly elegant and sweet. She wouldn't think of eating pencils, plastic spiders, bags of M&Ms (or plastic bags of raw bacon), furniture, doorframes, gum, lipstick, or garbage, but I'll always have a soft spot for Roxy and her junkyard ways."

"One of the worst stories was about Heather's dog, who looked just like Holly. The dog ate every plastic object in the car while Heather's parents were in the grocery store. That included the radio knobs, the door locks, the handles, and the knob for the gear shift."

by Beth Kane 

"Not to try to one-up the story of Heather's dog eating car parts (which was outrageous), I have to report on 'Biscuit's menu choices. I noted how elegant she is. What I failed to mention is her expensive tastes. The most costly meal she ever ate was three seatbelts ($900., you have to replace, not repair, seatbelts at $300. a pop). I guess she could have also had dessert and eaten the last one, but she was probably limiting her fiber."

"I remember Art frantically looking for his seatbelt in the back seat of your car before finding out Biscuit ate it."

"My black lab "Jake" always go for the new dog toys my wife brings home. Our other dog, Pepper, is a cavalier King Charles Spaniel and quite the yippy little priss. My wife bought a pink purse with "princess" on the side for Pepper, but Jake, my masculine black lab, claimed it as his own. I laughed hysterically at my dog running around the yard with the pink, fuzzy, purse that had "princess" on the side. Of course, he ate the thing in like 2 days."

"Sandy, remember when Roxy ate the plaster WALL in the kitchen!?"
