Mojo Menu

One of Mojo's worst vices is his tendency to eat really stupid things. It was worse when he was a puppy, I was constantly pulling things out his mouth. It's gotten better but every now and then he eats or attempts to eat something he shouldn't. Here's a sampling of what he's eaten.

• Mulch
• Hair (constantly)
• Cigarette butts
• 7 inches of shoelace (don't ask me how I know)
• String (lots of it)
• A pen (we found the pen before he got to any of the metal but he did crunch some of the plastic)
• Head phones
• The ears off his toys
• Half a phone book cover
• The corner of a newspaper bag
• Worm jerkey (also known as the dried up worms baked on the sidewalks)
• Poop (the more rancid the better)

We do try out best not to let him eat these things, but are not always successful.

Fun with Mulch

     Yesterday was a long day. I woke up at 5 a.m. to the sound of Mojo throwing up. 

     The bathroom where he sleeps wasn't covered in vomit so I went back to sleep for an hour, until the alarm sounded. When Matt woke up to take Mojo outside, Mojo promptly threw up all over the carpet. Apparently he'd eaten some bad mulch. We cleaned it up and didn't think anything of it, until it was time for bed. 

    It was actually past bedtime when Matt finally peeled himself off the couch to come to bed. We did our "tucking in" routine and realized Mojo was trying to clean up some leftovers from that morning. (His toy buffalo had been concealing the stain on his bed).  So we were up until almost midnight cleaning up stale dog vomit. Oh the joys of parenthood.
