Dragster loves to chew on stickers(grass burrs). Yesterday Drag was messing with my pants leg and I was wondering why. He pulled out a sticker and started chewing on it. It made me laugh!! He was so gentle pulling it out.. its like my very own sticker puller. :) i will try to film him doing that. He also enjoys paper clips. He does not ever swallow them, he just chews on them.

Penny will pick up anything on the ground, and usually eats it too. We have to constantly keep an eye on her! The other day she got ahold of a corn cob (very dangerous) and ate part of the end off. She threw it up later that night and seems to be ok...I'm considering having her jaw wired shut! Ha ha ha!
As you say - corn cobs are very dangerous! My friend's golden ate a few halved corn cobs from the garbage last year and threw up most of them but one ended up being lodged in his intestines and he needed very pricey emergency surgery. He made it through ok and on a positive note she has been dating the vet surgeon who saved him for the past year so his emergency brought her love.
Morgan has a love for seafood. We live by the beach and my father is a commercial fisherman so he finds lots of things from dead crabs, to fish skin, to salty sticks.... and he always has to kiss you after. I swear the reason they are so cute as puppies is to keep us from screaming when they do something stupid. He kissed my 84 year old grandmother with a mouth full of CRAB! That was a fun experience. And I did not think her face could pucker any more.
But other than that anything goes. Cardboard boxes, especially those that once held food are important. He once ate an entire milkbones box, and left the milk bones.... no joke you can ask Darius!
Kids always enjoy the boxes more than the gift itself. LOL
They do usually get over that eventually but they are so close to the ground it is really hard to stop them!
Bottle tops. Potus's favourite activity is o get a plastic bottle and try and get the lid off. He's unbelievably gorgeous when he rolls on his back with the bottle between his front paws and back legs just hanging there as he tries to get the lid off. Eventually he does then proceeds to throw them around the room, flinging his head to make it fly across the room. He'll sit and chew them but we take them off him before he gets a chance to swallow them.

Oh, and Derek, like Morgan Potus loves boxes. Destruction is his favourite hobby :)

Also, pegs. We use them to peg towels to the outside of his cage to keep him warm from draughts. He has figured out ow to get them off his cage though and LOVES to chew them. He has swallowed some small pieces but w're pretty good and gettin them away from him before he has the chance to swallow them.
Holiday will eat anything even remotely edible, she particularly likes peppers and cucumbers though she has been known to eat garlic and even raw onions if one escapes while I'm chopping, she's faster then me and often runs out of the kitchen with *prizes*.
Try not to let her eat the onion, they are toxic to dogs. I think the garlic is too, but would have to look that up.
garlic is debatable. It's not recommended to give in large amounts, but small amounts have proven benefits.
I give mine a little garlic with their food during flea season, and Grissom has never seen a flea, but I would never give any large amount.
Ella's favorites are cardboard and paper. And boy can she make a mess with those.
Grissom will eat anything and everything that he can get his little mouth on.
He's not destructive, never chews up furniture or shoes, clothes, etc, but any little foreign object on the floor is his.
Jet is the same way. We have seen him licking black ants off the back patio and he even was trying to eat a penny yesterday. He usually drops whatever he is eating when he noticed that I see him.
Tucker loves to hunt ants. He watches them for a while (developing his plan of attack) then usually picks them up in his mouth and flings them - runs after the ant and repeats the process until he decides it's time to finally eat the little bugger.
