| Oh yes!! And anything else she can get in her mouth, plastic, wood, steel, carpet...anything.. I learned my lesson thouhg, she got sick once when she stayed with my mother over a weekend we went away. She ate some wood, and I assume something else too, she ended up at the vet who had to place her on drip with overnight evaluation. I nearly died Now, I have baby proofed EVERYTHING and I trust to the best of my knowledge that she is no longer eating the entire house. |

| Peppy is too dignified to tear anything up, even as a pup he wasn't destructive. Lollie was a fun light hearted pup who loved to grab and run. She shared much of her puppyhood with her sister littermate and an orphan raccoon so she was kept pretty well occupied and didn't have a lot of paper shredding time. Little Orphan Annie, well she was another story entirely . |

| Callie does not like to eat paper but she loves to tear up paper but its mostly tissue. She has learned to stop and not touch it if I tell her no so its its not a gross one I will let her go ahead and "kill" it then I will pick it up.

| If my Holly is upset with me, she'll find pieces of paper and rip it up and eat it. |

| I guess its a yorkie thing. lol I can't remember any of my other dogs in the past doing this. Yes, he will shred and/or eat anything paper and make a complete mess everywhere at the same time. If he sees that I see him when he gets a piece of some sort of paper, he'll take off running with it. And when I do finally catch him and grab it from his mouth, he's nipping (playfully) at me to get it back. |

| I was having a problem with him trying to eat the wood from the wall and off of furniture for a while. He seems to have either grown out of or lost interest in wood thank goodness. I know its frustrating. What are you suppose to do? You can't hid the wall, right.? |

| My lil one thinks its lots of fun to tear papers, he likes to jump around with a lil yelp and tear the paper and then jump around like rabbit again and chew on them.. I am constantly taking things out of his mouth.. till now he has already chewed the contract paper from the breeder, bills, labels from toys, t-shirt and towels |

| I have a foster who was driving me nuts eating mulch in my backyard. I had to spend all of our outside moments telling him to stop. One day someone said it was a fiber thing. I laughed thinking that was a joke. Well, when I started home cooking for Cookie (she is on a sweet potato and tilapia diet), I started giving my other pups sweet potatoes as treats. Sunny loves sweet potatoes! He started begging for them every time he saw me making Cookie's food; so I have been giving him extras. Funny thing....he no longer eats mulch!!
