Rafe's latest attempt for the Darwin Award...
My dog is clever. Too clever.

His latest attempt for the Darwin Award was yesterday, when he worked out how to open a pedal bin. And devoured the cooked chicken bones inside it.

Am keeping an eye on him, but he seems ok for the moment. Stupid dog.

I know
that you're not supposed to give dogs and cats chicken bones. But surely, before humans started keeping these animals as pets, they went and caught their own chickens?

Does it make a difference if they're cooked?

Modern dogs
are pussy-whipped versions of their former wolfy wonder.

Hmm
Not thought about it before, but I think the cooking process makes the bones more likely to splinter

Yep
He can eat raw chicken bones no issue, but when they're cooked they become brittle, and splinter. Tis these bone splinters which are bad as they can rupture the doggy's insides.

Rule - raw bones ok, cooked bones baaaad.

And raisins. And grapes. And chocolate. And onions. So I'm told.

I think the onions are to control his gut
Doggy farting? No thanks!

Specially Rafe's
He is Rafe the Wonder Dog and his special power is the super fart that can kill at forty paces.

Rafe and Millie
are obviously similar.

I was on the couch last night smelling the guffmonster dropping her guts whilst asleep on the floor next to me.
