Will Eating Paper Cause A Problem?

[Diana Erhart]

My Charlie is a picky eater.  He hasn't eaten in 2 or 3 days and you can hear his tummy gurgling from 2 weeks away.  He loves muffins so I decided to bake some muffins with ground up dog food and cheese in them.  He ate a couple of them, but when I wasn't looking he just took the paper muffin thing that I baked it in and ate that.  He left half the muffin but I guess that paper was tasty.  Will this hurt him at all?  Or just come out the other end?  Maybe he felt like he needed some extra fiber.

Nope.  All my dogs have been paper eaters.   He will be just fine. As a matter of fact, Spud had a small piece of my muffin paper this morning.

Lolli eats paper, too.  We try to pry most of it out of her mouth and she is actually pretty good about letting us.  I am afraid of blockage but no problems so far!

From paper towels to a parking ticket, Finn has digested it all with no problem.

LMAO.  Paper Towels are the BEST.  My dogs have never liked Recycled computer paper though.

Okay, old story but I'll tell it again. My last dog, Pete, ate paper constantly.    I was a horrible poop picker upper at the time (now I do it every day)   When I hit the hidden poop, all dried, with the lawnmower, paper would fly up like confetti.  That is how much paper this dog ate!

We eat paper here, usually bills and important letters, they seem to go down best!

Mostly tissue here. And baby wipes. No blockage yet, but pet insurance is a must at my house.
