gategrrlMy cute, overweight, fuzzy mutt Goldy loves to eat. Oh yes, he does.
We had chicken last night - a cut up chicken - and Mermaid, who is a self-professed semi-chicken eater/vegetarian, said she'd take a leg. The leg was maybe five inches long. She didn't eat it, and left the table. Then I left the table, thinking she was going to go back and finish her dinner.
Moments later, there's some noise from the kitchen area (it's not blocked off from the rest of the house) and eager Goldy had jumped up on the table, snatched the cooked chicken leg, and wolfed it down. Guy said he thought he heard some crunching sounds - but when we raced into the kitchen, all we saw was a guilty looking dog. No chicken leg to be seen.
I know that chicken bones are not good for dogs - can even be dangerous. Should I make an appt for the stupid dog, or wait to see if he passes the bones or digests them?
