Dog = Cow

So the latest Murphy story I have is this. It happened day before yesterday. It was a really hot day and Murphy doesn't do too well in the heat. So later in the day we thought - hey - it might be nice to let her loose in the back yard because outside was cooler than inside.

So later when I was moving the sprinklers I noticed Murphy was acting weird. Well more than a little weird. We was practically mowing the grass. This dog was grazing like a cow that had been starved for a month.

So I had to drag her inside. Even then she just was straining on the screen door to get outside and eat more grass.

Then she started whimpering and making little gagging noises.

Finally she pukes up a massive pile of bile, mucus, and grass on the carpet.

And I'm telling you - it was a huge pile. It was like two servings of supersized Mc Donalds fries.

I called the vet and apparently when dogs have an upset stomach, grass is like pepto bismal to them. We still have to fight Murphy to keep her from the grass, but I'm hoping this whole grass fixation soon passes.
