What Makes Your Dog Happy Might Not Be Safe

While I was walking with my little dog, she loved running after acorns. I didn’t know why, but she loved walking through the acorns and kept going to them.

If I accidentally kicked one of the acorns, she would run like crazy after it. Sometimes she would also pick them up and bring them to me.

Once, we came home after a walk, and she started drinking water. When I looked to fill her water bowl, I saw an acorn in it. She had brought one home, that’s how much she loved them!

At first, I didn’t think much of it, and she kept doing it.

But one day, she threw one up. I was so scared that I stopped walking with her near the acorns. Then, the next day, she threw up a total of eight acorns. I was terrified it had upset her digestive system. I went to the vet, and luckily, she was fine. But still, it was shocking that she would do that.

Moral of the story: Watch out for what your dog does when going on a walk. Not everything that makes them happy is good for them. Always keep an eye out, even for things that seem harmless.

    Unfortunately, I have encountered the same thing only with food scraps. I’m glad you are warning everyone about this!
