Bizarre

My pooch has funky tastes
To sniff out bizarre caviar of freshly milled
Tissue paste

Pounce like cougars
Not for meat treats, but Kleenex filled
Boogers

He's got
A nose for skilled
Snot

My pooch has funky tastes
Not for meat treats, but Kleenex filled
Snot

Congratulations on your win. A fun and cute write. You put a smile on my face. They love tissues because they are soft and fun to play with. Enjoy your win........

Hmmm! Our dog seems to have a similar penchant for paper and kleenex. Bizarre! Love your reference to paper as "caviar" for dogs! Congratulations on your win!

I was going to title this 'Bizarre Caviar' but the rules said the title had to be just 'Bizarre' - it is crazy how so many dogs seem to crave it!

LOL...my sister’s dog kept grabbing tissues and tissue paper and running off. Sounds like a curious bugger! Congratulations!

Bingo, so do our two - they can wait for me to get out of the car, so that they can check if one has fallen or first thing in the morning run to the little wicker basket in the bedroom to select and eat these tasty treats 'Yuk"really wierd, C'est la vie". I though I was a bad doggy mum but now I hear others do it I feel much better - well penned Michelle.

LOL! I am not unfamiliar. My favourite dog that’s not mine has such a habit. My own has a predilection for chewing gum. Hugs you, xomo

Dogs are such funny creatures, mine also likes to roll around in the nastiest muck he can find when we go to the beach!

I love this! I once had a dog who ate the crotch out of every pair of panties he could chew which was every pair he found.

With such experience, shouldn't he work at the airport screening for covid-19? Aloha! Rico
