Bella always eats the little rabbit "pellets" that she finds from the wild bunnies that visit our yard. There is absolutely no way I can keep her from them and they are so tiny that I can't even see them sometimes. All of my other dogs ate them too. I worry about picking up a disease or getting sick, but so far she's been fine. I am sorry I have no ideas for you Danna but dogs do eat the strangest things sometimes!!! Hope you can work something out.
