Chewing socks and eating strings.... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I cannot stop Camrey from stealing socks and chewing on them.... I have caught her actually chewing pieces off and I assume swallowing the fabric before I can catch her & take it away.... I have noticed a string here or there in her bowel movements... Should I be concerned if she steals a sock or two and chews the fabric? Will it cause some type of obstruction? Now matter how hard I try to keep socks out of her reach, she manages to get her paws on one every few days!!!

That sounds very dangerous to me. Just make sure they are out of her reach, preferably in a drawer! Problem solved!

I agree.... And that is the plan... But my darling 16 year old always manages to leave her sock drawer open & Camrey steals a sock daily!!!!
