Molly likes to eat dryer sheets. I usually find out about it that day when she barfs it up or a few days later when she poops it out.
Last night, she had the remaining evidence hanging from the corner of her mouth stuck by a thread between her teeth. Now I would like to teach her good hygiene by having her brush her floss teeth, but doing it with a dryer sheet is overkill. Three-quarters of the sheet went somewhere…
Since she didn’t barf it out, I guess it’s coming out the other end. I gave her extra pumpkin with her chicken last night for extra fiber in her diet to help ease it out.
I’m not looking forward to the next few days cause I’m sure that something is going to get plugged — and dryer sheets make a really good dachshund butt plug — which I have to extract with one swift yank. It’s unpleasant for both of us, but I’m sure that Molly gets the worst of it.
Will she ever learn not to eat things? Will we ever learn to quickly pick them up and remove them from the laundry? The answer to this is of course is no. I guess we’ll have to live with our Dachshund dryer sheet butt plugs for now.


I just came across this and now I cannot stop laughing. The doxie in the picture looks exactly like mine who just had to have surgery to remove a thong from her stomach (she swallowed it whole). But the dryer sheet thing is hilarious, because she has pooped those out many times!
A thong? I can’t even imagine how she was able to swallow that…
my dog squiggles also enjoys bounce sheets! she is right there when i am switching laundry around just in case i drop one. and if i put the bounce sheet in the bathroom garbage , she will sneak in there and grab it, then run to her bed!
I too came across this. The thong is too funny. I call my Dahli a panty raider. She loves warm laundry. Ever since she was a pup, she has a thing for panties. She will burrow into the clothes while I have the ‘warm laundry’ on the bed folding it. If she hears something, she often goes running, barking with my panties caught around her. Imagine a little red shorthair on the back of the couch in the window toting Victoria’s Secret telling you to stay away! Who says you need ADT to protect your home?
