tree stumps
Ive got a 14 week old pup called sasha. Ive noticed that recently she has been chewing on tree and shrub stumps out in the garden. Have dug up the ones I can but there are a few left out there. She also has taken a liking to other plants and this morning brought in a branch and destroyed it and left it on the living room floor. Is it safe for her to do this as she is obviously eating some of it

Re: tree stumps
Some plants are poisonous and should be avoided or removed if possible .... bitter spray and a strong leave command will help for the plants that need to stay and you don't want to be dug/pulled up
I am happy for Chiquito to chew on barks/sticks, however he is a chewer not a swallower so all I have to worry about is the mess (he does get little bits in his tummy from chewing obviously, however is not going out of his way to swallow bits).
If you do not want her to have sticks/branches I would suggest you will need to do your best to keep them out of the yard, provide other chew options and again use a strong leave command when she does come across one.

Re: tree stumps
I have been put there all day as soon as im cutting them down shes knicking them and running around the garden with them. I dont think she is eating them more chewing and she lets me remove left overs from her mouth
