Hi Katherine, don't know the definitive answer to this, but my instinct is that ivy is probably not a great think for Barnaby to be eating - some varieties can be a bit poisonous, or certainly irritating to animals. Pickle eats all sorts of weird green stuff - grass, leaves, seaweed etc - don't know if it's just the expirimental puppy thing, or if he has a taste for chlorophyll!!
Sorry not to be more helpful - I guess in summary I would try to discourage the ivy eating.
