Cocoa Ate a Dryer Sheet


Look at this adorable face! Does this look like the face of a pup that would yank a dryer sheet out of your hand and wolf it down before you can even say nooooooooo? You're darn right it does! Yes, he's adorable with his innocent little face, but he can be very sneaky! So yesterday, CoGator and RoxRoo had gotten into something --something RANK-- and Darling Hubby (DH) thought it would be a good idea to wipe them down with a dryer sheet to freshen them up. Granted, we don't even use dryer sheets anymore, I use liquid Gain softener, so I thought it was a pretty good idea myself. Heck, why not use them for something since we have them already. So I go out there with 2 dryer sheets and start rubbing Roxie down. She sits there so politely and lets me rub away. Meanwhile, Cocoa is jumping up and down, acting all silly, and next thing I know -- he' snagged his dryer sheet and has it chewed up and swallowed before I can grab him. Considering all the things they have ate in the past, I really wasn't too worried about the consequences. That is -- until I "googled" it. All this talk about toxins and intestinal blockage had me worried. DH assured me he should be fine considering all that he's ate in the past -- wood, shrubs, plastic bottles, styrofoam pumpkins, newspapers, planters, aluminum cans . . . well, you get the picture. Thank goodness, he seemed fine this evening. I think mama's Cocoa Boy is gonna be just fine.

  1. since he has eaten everything but the wheels off the car...Im PRETTY sure this will be fine! He's so cute.....and spring fresh now!

    Another use for dryer sheets THEY SAY...is put them in your socks and the mosquitos will not bite..... :) A g-pa at ballgames swears by it! Get Hubby to sport that look this summer! :)
