The things a puppy will eat.

Question
I have 2 male pug puppies and they are always eating everything. If one of them ate a slug would it make the puppy sick? I have been noticing lately that at night when it's been raining or wet slugs have been invading my puppies food and water dishes and all over the back porch.
Thank You for listening.:)

Answer
Angie-

Yes, a slug can make a puppy sick. If they can stomach it !! If they are able to swallow it it will probably make them a little queasy.

Try putting a ring of salt around your dog dishes. if the puppies dont eat it, it will keep the slugs away!
