What's the grossest thing your Boxer does?

Cosworth only has one really gross habit. On our normal walk we go by a barber shop. I don't know if they just don't sweep often enough or what, but there are often little tuffs of hair that find their way out onto the sidewalk. He doesn't do it every time (because he knows he will be in trouble), but Cosworth loves to eat these little tuffs. Yuck.

At my mom's house once he ate the cat poo...fresh. (we put an end to it). Well, we cleaned him up best we could. about a half hour later my bro came over while we were out back and DEmpsey went in to greet him. Before any of us got to him, he was kissing away!!! GROSS!

The worst one ever has to be my sister's dogs (which were brother and sister). The sister would follow her brother around the yard... because she liked "it" fresh. It wouldn't even hit the ground...

If you have a queasy stomach do not read.....! I have a 16 yr old who throws tampon applicators in the trash in her bathroom. Never fails, Wilma will come out of the bathroom (especially when we have company) with a plastic cigar hanging out of her mouth. When we try to take it away, she things it's play time and we have to chase her down. Needless to say, she has embarrased us more than once.

I have a very old house and once many moons ago the basement plugged up with water. The plumber came up the steps holding what he so nicely called "one of those white mice women use" by the string, and informed me to NEVER, EVER, flush another one unless I want to do this all the time. Needless to say, after I got over the embarassment, I have never flushed another. Well now ever since we got Jake the used "white mice" from the bathroom trash can are a particular delicacy. I have to keep the bathrom door shut so he can't sneak in there. Those are particularly gross when he vomits a whole one in the middle of the living room.

Okay this thread had me laughing hysterically. Bugzy likes to eat his own poo. Yuck!! He doesn't do it all the time but he'll come up to me afterward and the smell is unbearable. No kisses for him after that! The white mice post was hilarious. Why are dogs so nasty sometime? Good thing we love them so much!

Well, when Tucker was a puppy, he had an undies obsession. He didn't care if they are clean or dirty - he would steal them from the hamper and the dryer whenever he got a chance. But, he didn't just chew them, he would actually swallow them and throw them up later. I can't tell you how many times I had to removed piles of undies and vomit from the yard, the house, the car...ewww. It was horrible. I'm lucky that he's grown out of that one. The only gross thing he does now is wipe bits and pieces of dog food on you after he eats, but I think that's a normal boxer thing.

Thank the Lord Calla does not have some of these nasty habits!! Some of these posts are NNAASSTTYYY! The worst thing she does is eat ants--the big ole' black ones.

Oscar used to have a habit of eating his own poo. Which he hasn't done since it has been warm out, I hope he has got over that nasty habit. Well to make matters worse on two occasions he snacked on his poo then came inside and vomited it on my bed. Oh my goodness, I tried to clean it up but got sick all over my bedroom floor, then in the kitchen and then finally once I made it to the bathroom. To make matters worse my other dog Lilly decided she was going to help out and clean up Oscars and my mess. I tried to rinse of the bedding but just couldn't take it and had to throw it all out. Then I had to clean the mess I made getting sick, while trying to keep the dogs from helping out .It was the grossest thing I have ever been through next to having to trim a string every day that took days to make it through my cats bowels. The things we go through for our furbabies.

KITTY TRUFFLES!!! Love that one!!! Ha!

Isis used to like dirty underpants, thank God she outgrew that one. She still loves to roll in dead things but fortunately we haven't come across any in a long while. We also have to keep our bathroom door closed because she finds all kinds of treasures in there...! Eeewww
