Anything that's left on a counter (which is NOT at eye-level) does not survive the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually had to put rubber bands on the kitchen pantry door knobs to hold them together...it's like babysitting. The only special arrangement we had to make was to buy a garbage container that could ONLY be opened by using your foot. Luckily, my dog isn't tall enough to reach the counter without a pretty nice jump. So I quickly (only one burger) learned to keep any food away from the edges. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the OP,our pitbull named Ellie has free run in our/her home. Pitbulls are the best!!! We have two! We absolutely do, ours have free run of our house too. They lick the plates as they are putting them in the dishwasher. If we were eating something spicy they'll learn. Though they haven't yet. Though we did find out the one does not like deer meat which is strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our dogs have eaten loafs of bread (with and without the bag), shoes (always one shoe from three different pairs so the remaining good shoes are worthless), bags of Hershey kisses (how they removed the foil is beyond me), sponge candy, and (my favorite incident) FIVE bacon wrapped filet mignon sitting on a cookie sheet on the counter waiting go on the grill. Our dogs have been hit by my snowmobile, one was run over by my father in law's landscape trailer, and all of them have licked plates. These damn dogs are pretty friggin durable and all of them have lived to about 13 years old. About 11 years ago, I was bringing in a plate full of cooked pork chops from the grill. Our new (at the time) kitten, Maceo, tried to bolt outside as I opened the door and I instinctively bent over to block him - sending every pork chop to the ground (mulch). Ruined. And I dropped my platter, which was my first Father's Day gift, "from my son." That little bastard is a) still kicking and b) still an escape artist. And I've never stopped reminding him that he was responsible for a lost dinner and platter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth be told, when she was a puppy, we tried the expensive stuff and she hated it. She's been eating Beneful ever since. Unfortunately our one dog has a food allergy so we have to buy her the expensive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One had a beagle named Regal (awesome name, by the way, for any Three's Company fans out there). If she came into the same room they were eating in, he would just point and say, "go," and the dog would turn right around and disappear. The other had some lab mix. He would say in a very deep voice, "you beggin'?" and that was the dog's queue to vamoose. 1 minute ago, teef said: too late. i already have the picture in my head. shirts are off in my fantas...i mean gross thought.

transient Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I have a pit mix with food allergies. She loses the hair on her chest and the top of her head unless we feed her prescription dog food. We tried a number of limited ingredient foods to no avail. This stuff seems to do the trick, her hair grew back and her energy is back, but her poop smells nasty on it and it’s expensive as hell. On the other end of the spectrum, my greyhound eats anything. He’s a tall boy, and can get to anything on my counter, and when we first rescued him he had absolutely no indoor manners. He has stolen and eaten numerous sandwiches, loaves of bread, a whole bag of tomatoes, and even stuck his head into a pot of gumbo while it was still on the stove. He ate part of a roll of paper towels once, right off the dispenser. Stupid bastard freaked out the next day when he, himself, turned into a towel dispenser. I ended up pulling three or four intact sheets out of his ass because he was jumping around going crazy with the “lead sheet” sticking half way out. Needless to say, I don’t encourage either one to eat anything that doesn’t come directly from a hand or a food bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
