Re: Puppy eating slate and stones

I see many puppies are addicted to eating stones and slates. You should try to keep him away from that area and distract him with other things so he could get attracted to that place. Give him good food containing vitamins and minerals.

Re: Puppy eating slate and stones

Hi

We do try and keep him away, unfortunatly we have alot in our garden! He does like to go to the toilet on it to! I am feeding him Beta puppy at the moment as that was what the breeder was feeding him but he will be on a raw diet soon enough when that has all gone.

Re: Puppy eating slate and stones

Ziva also had a stone/twig/anything habit. The only thing that worked was supervising continually and saying no loudly and then asking for her to drop it whilst holding something she wanted. Then on weekly basis' I would notice that she would pick up a lot less and in fact now I think about it I've not had to remove a stone for weeks now... and don't have to watch her religiously anymore... isn't it strange how these things creep up on you!!
