Bramble warning from Dempsey

I think most dogs are smart enough to know that they shouldn't swallow things that hurt their mouths. Tell that to Dempsey, who yesterday thought it would be a great idea to snatch a large mouthful of brambles from our garden. He then spent the next half an hour coughing intermittently because he'd irritated his throat.

To add insult to injury, he proceeded to start snatching at every piece of greenery he could reach - including ivy leaves. Cue me, having to scoop slimy, chewed up leaves from his mouth before he swallowed them.

Daft dog!

Daft boy! I always wonder why they don't learn about things like that. It only takes one bath for them to realise they don't like it, one time getting their nails clipped, but eating things they shouldn't? Nooo, lets try that again Bella has a thing about loose thread, she's always chewing away on it and nearly choking.

Honestly Dempsey, you never cease to amaze me!

Let me guess - you end up having to pull said loose thread out of her throat!

Demps is a big, lovable pillock.

Oh yes, it's like a magician's trick where they pull the row of hankies out of their pocket

I think we need to convene a doggie class on suitable edible objects. (Thurs, the 2nd on the 5th of the 3rd.)

All those in favour.... say "I'.

Dempsey..... now everyone has detention because of you.

" aye!"
