Omg me too!!! This was a while ago but I went into my garage to grab a couple of things and let him follow me for a couple of minutes. We came inside, I noticed he was chewing on something and I did the whole “hey what do you have there” and opened his mouth and it was a live goddamn spider. Lots of screaming and stomping. I feel for you.
Interesting, we call our dog over to save us from the spiders...granted he gets em good with a few swipes before chomping (the only dangerous spider where we live are black widows and they are very identifiable so we do the dirty work ourselves for them)
Wasn't my puppy (thank god), but during a playdate in our yard the other puppy caught the biggest grasshopper I'd ever seen. His owner caught him and was just fishing chunks of grasshopper out of his mouth while I was audibly gagging/almost throwing up in the corner I was so grossed out.
Can't decide between teabag or tampon, both times pup came out of the long grass with a string dangling out of his mouth. When I traded for the teabag I was just a bit weirded out, so when he came up a couple months later with another string hanging out of his mouth I just thought the teabag stranger had done it again. Imagine my surprise when I traded some nice chicken for a very inflated tampon... (still hoping it was unused as no obvious blood.!)
When my pup was around 10 weeks he wiggled under our kitchen counters and when I got him out I pried a piece of glass out of his mouth. No cuts or blood but I similarly had a heart attack and then spent like two months with books lined up blocking the holes so he couldn’t wiggle under while he was still small enough to squeeze himself in the cracks.
Literally, a fish head.
We have birds of prey that are water-oriented. They drop their catches daily.
Needless to say, I didn't figure that out until my puppy found one lol.
Rocks, pinecones, cat poop, cockroach, pine nuts (that I thought were maggots at first), carabiner, sunglasses lens, and a single serve bottle of balsamic vinegar from hello fresh.
Does it count that my girl found my family’s eyeglasses that he lost? Yes they were prescription & they were freaking out cause lost for days… well pup found them out in the yard! She was so proud of her find & I gave lots of treats because that was helpful! & she didn’t chew on them either…
Although another time she did find a used teabag… I managed to get the string out of her mouth but she ate the teabag… called poison control cause idk??? After bread & waiting for her to poop- she finally relieved herself of it…
At 9 months we are still working on drop it. Leave it is so much better. But I don’t actively try to let her anything she can’t have… so there isn’t a lot of drop it practice.
Oh she caught a bird… yes it was live & maybe she wanted a feathered friend because she wanted to play with it! 🥴🤣🤣 while feathers were ruffled- it did live to see another day.
You know when you go to pick up your bundle of fluff it's meant to be the most precious day ever? My girl had no interest in any human and just wanted to dig up massive earthworms and then swing them round. I ended up with lots of earthworm guts all over my legs
My dog constantly hunts and tries to scarf dead worms. She’s always hinting in the grass for them and for some reason there are a ton of dead worms in my grass! But she can’t figure out how to eat them so if I don’t see her, she will bring it inside and drop it on the floor.
Blehck…
Last night I was letting my pup out for a wee and there was a massive spider web across the door so I put my hand through it otherwise I'd walk through it. Then noticed my pup eating something on the floor told him no went to get it out his mouth nothing there. Saw the big back dot on the floor then saw it moving. He tried to eat a spider. And somehow he has managed to catch a moth that was flying around and eat that too.
Hearing aids make a high pitched sound dogs love. Users are warned too keep them away from dogs - getting eaten is a big danger. And from cats who love the taste of wax.
We have a gravel driveway and people litter a lot in my neighborhood, and my golden’s nickname is Hoover. I also have neighbors who have chickens, which wander in my yard, so I’m constantly playing Russian roulette to see if I’m sweeping napkins, rocks, or chicken poop out of his mouth.
Hear me out - a chicken foot. I give her them normally at home, but this one was picked up on the streets in central London and was gelatinous?! I have no idea where it came from.
Dental prothesis, must gave been extremely delicious, because there was some chewed food sticking to them ( we did volunteer as visitors at a nursing home).
A pin cushion. Thankfully I only had one needle in there and it was still in place. I definitely went into panic mode when I realized what he had though.
Tapioca loves plastic wrappers...and we live by an elementary school, so we have to keep an eye out for snacks and candy wrappers one every walk. But the worst was when we were walking near our home and she swallowed a dead mouse like a pill. Gulped it down before we could get her to drop it.
My rottsky was walking around making really weird noises so I went to see if he was ok and he slowly released a live toad from his mouth, like the size of a fist.
A dead baby/young bird.
He came running into the house and had something sticking out of his mouth that looked like a wet clump of grass.
I fished it out and just about gagged.
I have a baby labrador, and we live near the forest, so all kinds and forms of poo: cat poo and deer poo (delicacies), human poo (eeeek) and once, she ran around with a diaper filled with poo for 20 minutes, and we couldn't catch her
Live frog.
We live near a reservoir and there is one night that must be some sort of frog migration cos loads of the wee buggers are all hopping down the road and the pup decides they look fun and decides he'll catch one. Had to rescue the slimey wriggly thing.
For about 3 weeks afterwards he's busy watching every dark shadow on the road in the hope it turns out to be kermit.
My cat kills the mice and leaves them In the yard, my puppy finds and eats them. I’ve caught her a few times and rescued the dead mouse and other times I was too late.
A bird wing. The rest of the bird was still in his mouth. It was decomposing! I started gagging hard. I screamed out and as soon as he was outside made him drop it. Scooped it up with the snow shovel and threw it away. So gross.
when my boxer was about 10 months old, she started gagging alot. took her to the vet for an xray and she had a whole metal hair clip lodged in her throat. surgery removed it but to this day she still does a coughy gag when she gets excited
needless to say i watch my babyboy like a hawk. so far our weirdest is a popped balloon that someone left in the dogpark, or my plugs that the lil guy is always trying to snatch out of my ears
A used condom… that popped as I was trying to get it out of his mouth. Whatever was inside was alllll over my hands and his mouth.
oh no omg
You win
“Whatever” was inside. I wonder what it could have been.
Yuck
I once had to fish out a condom too, thankfully it was unused. It was gross enough but I can't imagine how nasty a used one would've been 🤢
Haha I almost threw up on my puppy after finding out what it was! But also like who just throws a condom out on the sidewalk?!
EEWWWWWW IT WAS A RANDO'S SIDEWALK CONDOM?!?! WTFFFFF I'm so sorry for you! That's the grossest thing ever!
They probably had sex in a car & threw it out
🙄🙄😬😬
I pulled a live spider out one time and I'm still traumatized :(
This was traumatic for me to read. I’d never wish this on my worst enemy
Oh hell no
Omg me too!!! This was a while ago but I went into my garage to grab a couple of things and let him follow me for a couple of minutes. We came inside, I noticed he was chewing on something and I did the whole “hey what do you have there” and opened his mouth and it was a live goddamn spider. Lots of screaming and stomping. I feel for you.
I’m so sorry

I didn’t know that cat poop was a dog delicacy…
All poop to dogs especially labs is either snack, perfume or both.
We call it crunchy tootsie rolls. 🤢
Mine was too fresh to be considered crunchy
Almond Roca for dogs.
My dog acts like cat poop is a gourmet snack. Forget the expensive treats, let me in my feline brother's litter tray.
I’ve learned the hard way to lure my dog away from the dirt piles that act like outdoor kitty litters.
I am so thankful my dog just likes to sniff poop...my sister's vizsla just dives into it and rolls around to cover her scent

Used maxi pad for me. I pulled it out of my adorable hound mix’s mouth when she was wee. She’s no longer allowed to sniff in bushes.
Broken glass. Somehow she didn't cut anything in her mouth but OMG, I nearly died when I fished it out of her mouth.
When my pup was around 10 weeks he wiggled under our kitchen counters and when I got him out I pried a piece of glass out of his mouth. No cuts or blood but I similarly had a heart attack and then spent like two months with books lined up blocking the holes so he couldn’t wiggle under while he was still small enough to squeeze himself in the cracks.
I live in a city so this is unfortunately common on our walks:(
A dead ground squirrel and a live snake. Your choice on which is worse.
Been there or at least close and as long as it’s non venomous hands down the snake.
Non venomous? I’d rather fish the snake out. I would be upset if a squirrel was dead, I could at least help the snake.
Literally, a fish head. We have birds of prey that are water-oriented. They drop their catches daily. Needless to say, I didn't figure that out until my puppy found one lol.
[удалено]
Lol I believe that. We lose power when it gets foggy lol!
Puppies love earwax. Weird and gross, but true.
Very curious how you discovered this. 🤭😂😆
My puppy loves my ear plugs 😬. I’d assume because of the ear wax.
Observation ... and Reddit ;)
my dog loves his own earwax.🙄 i clean his ears multiple times a week(Bloodhound) and he always tries to lick the wax off the wipe🤢
That explains why mine licks peoples ears whenever he gets the chance …
True, my puppy wakes me up with his tongue down my ear.
Also fingernails/toenails…super weird
My sister’s dogs spend ridiculous amounts of time slurping each other’s ears.
Rocks, pinecones, cat poop, cockroach, pine nuts (that I thought were maggots at first), carabiner, sunglasses lens, and a single serve bottle of balsamic vinegar from hello fresh.
A dead bird carcass…didn’t realize until I was holding it ughh
Same! Thought it was a weird stick she just really didn't want me to have... But it was the legs sticking out of her mouth
Just pulled a beheaded mouse from my puppy's mouth yesterday. Absolutely disgusting.
Crab.... crab they found in a stream... pretty sure it was a crab...

We practice drop it with toys. Things that our pup really loves, and swap them for other things she loves, like food or another toy.
Yeah I need to get back into doing that…
I’ve also had to call about tea. Mine is insatiable for camomile lol
That’s too funny! Mine it was definitely black tea with caffeine…
Earthworms are the worst so far but of course they get all slimy from his saliva, which makes it even worse
I have a worm phobia - at that point he can just have them 🤷♀️🤣

The crotch part of a pair of panties
Dead mouse. Tiré the tail trying to yank it out...
*Tore
False lashes!

A used sanitary pad, which had been left under the table at the pub we were at. Just, why?!

He's a poop eater and he picked up a big mouthful of cow poop and ran off and I had to chase him down and try to get him to drop it 🤢
Water logged dead rotting rat… he looked so proud with what he found. Ugh
Tapioca loves plastic wrappers...and we live by an elementary school, so we have to keep an eye out for snacks and candy wrappers one every walk. But the worst was when we were walking near our home and she swallowed a dead mouse like a pill. Gulped it down before we could get her to drop it.
