Yuck! Yuck! Yuck!

[ElaineH]

Morgan is disgusting and he's making my flesh creep  He's started making a real fuss to go outside and there's no way he needs to pee every 15 minutes, oh no! what it's really about is that he wants to eat the maybugs that are clattering into the outside light and falling to the ground - crunch, crunch 

 

Is anyone else having this happening?

Uurrgghhhh!  Murphy our retriever used to eat spiders - particularly if they bothered me, which they usually do      Now he's an old man he just gives a look suggestive of "get a grip" and goes back to sleep without budging

plenty of MayBugs about down here too but nobodys taken to munching on them here ......thank goodness

sorry Elaine but you can't have it all ways - if you expect him to save you from spiders by eating them he's probably developed a taste for creepy crawlies now

How true  I've only got myself to blame

When we still lived in the UK and we had Tilly, she had a penchant for Stag Beetles. However she never mastered the art of eating them before they nipped the inside of her mouth. The more they nipped and she spat them out the angrier the beetles got, the more she kept picking them up in her mouth again!!!

Ewwww nasty! I'm telling Tali they are 'no safe' and he just sits and watches them. They are early here this year.

 yuck yuck !!!!!! you dont know what yuck is,  at least its only bugs, not dead seal, poop  of any variety, yesterday it was mackeral heads as there had been a fishing comp on the beach a few days before, so 3 day old fish heads

Louis is happily crunching on Maybugs too. They fly into the outside light when I let the dogs out last thing, fall to the ground, inevitably land on their backs and before I can upright the poor things Louis is there, crunch, crunch, crunch

That's exactly how it is here too Elaine, these cockers are so darn quick to grab things however, unlike you, I've never thought of the ugly beasts as "poor things" and I can't even imagine a scenario in which I would be tempted to rush to their aid

This all sounds very gross indeed   I'm pleased that Odie hasn't developed a taste for nasty things, he doesn't really eat anything untoward (apart from new or used tissues that is ) so I'm fairly lucky in that respect.

I have to agree with minimoo  I've experienced far worse yuck moments with my cocker. I do understand that it is not exactly pleasant to see them eat bugs. But with my cocker, the biggest concern is poop eating. And I am afraid to tell you what kind of poop she seems to be an expert at finding. She also ate a dead mouse off the street once  Not to mention her habit of rolling in anything that smells bad. Last week it was a dead hedgehog, this week a dead mole

Another cruncher here    Georgia has developed a taste for those vile maybugs    i think they are also known as cockchafer's 
Tbh i don't mind if she catches them & eats them    esp. after i had one fly into me  they really give me the creep's.

  i just googled maybugs! ewwwwww they are awful, i'd encourage ours to eat them if we got any so there'd be less chance of them coming near me

more proteins for the doggies! lol  although it is a bit gross...
