I don’t think Piper was always eating everything but as she got older, her appetite expanded. Kind of like when you become an expert at something and crave a bigger challenge. That’s how she was with eating. Food? Nah, that’s for peasants.
Piper ate a lot of things that should not be eaten. Well, I take that back. One of them was actually food, I suppose. Have you ever seen a seahorse? One random day we found one on the shore, it had already died somehow. It’s not every day that you find a seahorse so I brought it up to the house to, I don’t know, have it on display. Yeah, that didn’t last long. Just for a moment Piper was left on the porch of the beach house and you can guess what happened when she was unsupervised out there. Seabiscuit went bye bye.
She’s eaten books, papers, napkins, as seen in this library book I eventually had to pay for.
I’ll just get this out as quickly as I can: She’s also had a used tampon in her mouth. I’ll spare you any pictures. The lengths that pup went to digest things was pretty impressive. I guess she had the stomach for some wild things, I’ll give her that! Everything was ranked #1 in her belly, but she will always be #1 in my heart.
