Dog Eats Four PGA Masters Tickets

April 6, 2012

“It bubbles in their stomach; it’s very safe, and they puke in about 10 minutes,” he said. “About 10 minutes later she did what she was supposed to, which was puke up the Masters tickets.”

Rough!

And a weirdly related story, from Uncle John’s SLIGHTLY IRREGULAR Bathroom Reader, page 307:

BIRDIE DOG
Mike Wardrop, a bar manager at the Didsbury Golf Club in Manchester, England, liked to take his German Shepherd, Libby, for walks on the golf course, where Libby liked to pick up stray golf balls and bring them to Wardrop. When one day Libby lost her appetite and began coughing up blood, Wardrop never suspected that Libby might have swallowed some of the golf balls. But when Wardrop took Libby to the vet, “they didn’t even have to do an X-ray; they could hear the balls rattling around,” he says. “They were betting how many would be in there. I think the highest bet was 11, so they were shocked when 28 came out.” $1,100 worth of veterinary and surgery bills later, Libby is back to normal and Wardrop is trying to break her golf ball habit. “I bought her two footballs,” he says. “She can’t swallow them.”
