Any idea why

My two were out in the yard just this morning trying their very best to dig through the snow to find a treasure. The other day they found a stick and proudly dragged it into the house.
I don't think they will ever stop looking for twigs or whatever they can find.

Both mine LOVE to do that. They will find a nice twig, branch, pine cone or pecan shell and have a feast! I try to grab the pecan shells because they can be sharp when they bite them...we don't even HAVE pecan trees in the yard...the squirrels bring them. Betty finds one and tries to run away from me...chewing the whole time!

Mine are 3 yrs and still do it from time to time. Coffee will drop it when I tell him to, but CoCo runs like the wind.

HAH! Join the club Tatum will eat anything and everything she comes in contact with. EVERYTHING goes in her mouth I swear she is like a 2 year old on steroids, LOL. I have to watch her VERY closely cause there is no telling what will end up in her mouth next!

My Stedman has never ever been that way. He'll sniff something, and walk off. Two totally different dogs, lol

I'm sure it is just puppy behavior but if an adult ever did it out of nowhere, it would be called pica which can be a symptom of disease (when they actually try to eat those things). That being said, Ellie used to steal markers and go under the bed with them.

Me too. Tricksie eats everything. She has a toy bear that had 5 squeekers in it, she got them all out except one. I wanted to go to bed last night and she brings the bear to bed and I didn't want her chewing on it so I put it in the head board of the bed and shut the door. She had a fit for a few min. trying to get it out but settled down. I went to sleep, she woke me up at 2AM vomiting, and it had white bits of rubber in it. Started looking around the room, "she surely was pissed at me" she had eaten the plug-in to my lamp, which was not plugged in.
Got up this morning, made her breakfast, (she watches because she loves food) she ate and disappeared. She was in the bed staring at the door where that bear was.

My two LOVE WOOD... When we have a fire in the fire palce I have to put them in the cage while we bring the logs in, then I have to sweep up before they can come out... they go crazy looking for any small piece of bark that may have been left behind. THEN... Sadie has to be watched like a hawk because she LOVES The taste of COAl... you know... the burnt wood coal from the fire place. She will walk in to the fire place WHILE THERE ARE STILL HOT COALS to get anything she can!!!! I have to put a baby gate behind the fire screen cause she can fit under the screen... SHe has done this since she was 12 weeks old!!!! Can you believe it?
