Munch munch

When we take him out for a pee, Finn has started to eat or at any rate chew wild plants of nondescript appearance growing in doorways. Should I let him do this?

I doubt it, but I think it's a good idea to ask.

I would not let him. You never know if the plant is poisonous to dogs.

Plants in doorways? I'm not sure what that is, but I wouldn't let him eat any plant anywhere!

I agree. My rule is "if you don't know what it is, don't eat it!" And that goes for my dog, too. Don't let him eat it! Lots of plants are poisonous. Can you ask someone what kind of plant it is?

I agree, never let your dog eat something you wouldn't or don't know what it is. Obviously we all don't go back to munch on grass but at least we know what it is and that it won't hurt them any.

Puppies....have to taste test everything don't they!
