Wrigley, the Dog Who Eats Vomited Poop
by Ted Slater on 02/06/2008 at 2:55 PM
In case you missed it, our most recent podcast featured Kara Schwab telling us about her dog's penchant for "returning to its vomit." You can listen to the podcast here; it's episode #2, about 21:45 into the show.
While you're there, please "subscribe" to The Boundless Show. It's free, and by subscribing you'll be sure to never miss an episode.
Anyway, here are three photos of Kara with her dog. Though Wrigley is beloved by those most close to him/her/it (perhaps Kara can provide clarification), the animal is not quite the cute puppy I referenced a couple of weeks ago.
(FWIW, I have to confess that I'm a lot like Wrigley. Amazingly, Someone loves me regardless of my penchants.)

Really cute pics of a very wriggly Wrigley!!!
Just to thank you all for what was a really great programme - that is the Boundless Show! Listening to the talks about women and singleness really reassured me I was normal - phew!!! What a relief to know I'm not alone in these matters, hearing from other women's experiences.
I liked the tone and content of the programme and found myself laughing and learning...especially the analogy given about eating vomit poop! Yucky but helpful! :) !!
Look forward to the next programme. Hope I can get to figure out how to view the first one which I missed too.

Not to get overly clinical here, but if the dog vomits poop, maybe we should be concerned about more than just its sex.

I believe in her segment that Kara mentioned that her dog was a girl. I think she said "She's nasty."

hey gang, my 9-year-old pooch, wrigley, named after my favorite baseball team's ball park, is a female. hardly dainty or feminine or delicately-mannered, but a female, none-the-less. and if you think eating her poop and vomiting it up and eating it again was gross, you're lucky i didn't go into detail about the utter stench of her heinous gas issues. oye.

patricia--wrigley is a boston terrier. want her?
john d.--yes, cubs rule! "next year." "next year is our year." if i ever get another dog, i'll have to name him "harry" after you-know-who.
nancy--because you called me "karen" i am going to give you details. lots of disgusting details. ok. just one nasty detail: wrigley not only likes to eat her poop. but she also likes to go through the trash and eat used feminine products that you're not allowed to flush. holy cow, i can't believe i just revealed that nugget of horrid truth, but if ted allows that to actually post, well, you deserved to hear it. hopefully you'll be able to get it out of your mind in a little while.

After that revalation, I would bet Kara you never let Wrigley lick your face.

mike--you are a wise, wise man who speaks the truth. although i will say... with wrigley, you have to be on guard and on the defensive at all times. if she jumps on your lap, she can, in a nanosecond, shove that nasty tongue of hers so fast right up and outta your left nostril and so far until she gooses your brain before you even knew what hit you. we're talkin' lickity split, man.

Your dog is adorable! I, too, have a dog named Wrigley, a male Golden Retriever, 10 mths old and just as wiggly. My dog actually watches all the Cubs game on TV, it's amazing to see. You can see him on the link below from my new weblog that launched yesterday.
