Does anyone have any firsthand information on pica? This is just for me to
learn. I bought a dog who was shipped in to Raleigh a few months ago; she ate
about one third of her crate cover. At the time, I didnât think much about
itâI thought she was probably stressed from the flight. Her pasterns were
also down; any connection? Her temperament was excellentâshe didnât seem
to be a nervous type at all. It became abundantly apparent that we could not
place a crate mat, towel or ANYTHING in her crate at night while she slept as
she would eat it. She ate small cat toysâthose little plastic balls, little
cotton mice, etc. Compulsive or so it seemed. Does anybody have any info on
this? (This isnât the same thing as senior dogs digging and eating dirt in
their old age. Iâve had 3 seniors do this; this particular puppy did NOT eat
dirt.)
Da List is da best.
