My dog ate the leaves of this plant.. what is it?
Comments (6)So many negative comments on this healing plant. Yes, the ”root” should only be applied topically and should not be ingested, however the leaf is used in many cultures as tea when dried. it has many medicinal properties. It has been historically know to aid with stomach issues as well as bronchial issues. Please use responsibly and within reason. Like any herb, it should be discontinued when the issue is resolved....See MoreMy Dog Ate My Avocado Seedling
Comments (3)Sorry to hear of your misfortune. I have similar problems with squirrels and chipmunks uprooting seedlings and plants. I know how frustrating it can be to nurture a plant and then see it wither. I have no experience with Avocado trees, but I have seen other trees send up a new shoot from the trunk when the main trunk dies. That may be what your tree is doing. If the shoot is near the roots, you may eventually have a strong tree from it. Select one sprout and trim off all of the others. Or you may want to just start over with a new seed and use this one to experiment with bonsai. Your title brought back a memory from long ago. I once told my teacher that the dog ate my homework. The teacher didn't believe my made-up story. She must have seen the TV show that gave the idea to me. I was not destined to be a con-man....See MoreMy dog ate the new grape stems from my new grape plant!
Comments (2)ok great. I am just watering it as needed, and watching for it to grow a new stem. I am glad this happened now and not later, so I still have all summer to grow the plant's first year main stem. Grapes seem to really love our vegas weather! :)...See MoreMy dog ate wood from our fireplace...Need Help!
Comments (10)I hope your dog is better this morning. If not, you would probably want to visit a vet, given that it sounds like she ate a lot of it. Wood ash is very alkali, which could be harsh on her digestive tract if she ate a lot. If she gulped it down in quantity, she may have gotten a larger piece that is stuck in her gut. My old lab had a weak tummy and she LOVED to eat BBQ ash. We didn't allow it, but every so often she'd get into it and nibble a little down. Funny though, it never made her throw up. When she was young we use to get charcoal dog biscuits at a local pet store; for her weak tummy and bad breath and we always figured that was why she would try to get into the charcoal and ash- to sooth her tummy. If your dog is not normally one who eats "stuff" she shouldn't, then she may have some other digestive issues that are driving her to eat things like that. Good luck....See Moresoonergrandmom
