Poppy's Mamma ♥ Donating Member | Poppy ate a slug. I let Poppy out into the garden for potty, when she came back in I could tell she was sort of avoiding me. I looked at her and could see she was spying on me from behind the chair, and keeping her distance... this was when I knew she was upto no good. I could see her mouth was slightly open and that there was something inside. I walked up to her and said "GIVE" but she ran away, I chased her around the living room for a few minutes before she started to eat whatever was in her mouth. A little bit of her disgusting meal fell out of her mouth while she was chewing, I picked it up with a tissue and it looked like part of a slug. Disgusting little lady she is! That was about an hour or so ago, and she has just been sick. The sick looked like mushed up slug... dont think she will be doing that again!

| My two Chihuahuas ate slugs a lot over the years. They seemed to like the dead dried ones best. (Slug jerky, yucky!) We always knew when it happened because their tummies made meowing sounds and we would always joke that they had a kitty in their tummies because that is exactly what it sounded like. They would refuse to eat their dinners when their tummies meowed so we always knew what happened. Other than that they never suffered any ill effects, didn’t even vomit, just refused to eat for a day. I always hoped they would learn and quit eating them but my oldest is 13 and he still grabs one occasionally. They must be tasty! |

| our vet said that the slugs would not hurt the dog when Sunshine decided he liked to eat them . We found that water does not clean off slug slime it makes it worse . So we used vinegar , it works great and I think it cured him from wanting to eat them . He really hated the vinegar .

| Sandy has eaten a slug before I've to chase him around, offering him some Cheerio so that he'd spit it out. Too late! |
