I have an unbelievably stupid dog. Usually it's my younger dog thats always doing stupid things but this time it's the older one.

I'd heard Terror crunching something under the bed the night before and had tried to get her to come out and show me what she'd got. She did come out but without whatever she'd been crunching. I looked under the bed and their was only a load of dog toys under there so I came to the conclusion that she'd swallowed whatever it was.
I weren't too worried about this. She's swallowed things before that she shouldn't have so I decided I'd need to keep an eye on her the next couple of days but she would probably be ok.

Yesterday I was woken by Terror about to puke! I may have traumatised the poor dog because I knew I coudn't get downstairs on the snail speed stairlift in time to let her out so I grabbed the bin and shoved her head in there!

She spent a few hours in her little cage and puked a few more times. She did at least attempt to clean it up herself or rather to hide it with her blanket! She's fine now but I've figured out what she'd been crunching on and had swallowed... pistachio nut shells! So I'm now having to put the shells in a bag out of her reach rather than in the bin
