Well, the dog had a nice snack last night. She ate exactly half of a $20 bill. It couldn't have been a $1 or a $5...nooooo, it had to be a $20. Of course, the bank won't replace it. So now I am on the hunt for the other half sometime over the next few days, if you get my drift. And the yard is snow covered again from an early morning squall.
Please dog, give me at least the serial number from the other half. I wouldn't have believed anybody telling me a story like this. Now I am a believer. Anybody else have this experience or similar with a pet?

I am sorry this has happened sugar. It's very upsetting. I have two cats. One of them is so naughty with any kind of paper. She already has eaten up, or shredded, $10., a check, books, papers,& magazines. She loves paper. I am sure others will have stories too. But, when they get the money, that really hurts, and I truley am sorry that you are out the $20. But, the animals don't know what they are doing.

Thanks. Yes, I remember you talking about your cats munching on all the paper around the house. I am not really upset about it, but it is true that they have no idea of what they are doing. If we could ever collect all the money that gets lost, we would probably be millioniares...lol.

Well, I don't have a dog, so this has never happened to me before, but I can say, I have lost a lot of money over the years...I guess he was hungry and just wanted to eat anything that he saw in front of him. At least it was not a bigger bill, now you are going to have to keep your money out of his reach. Good luck finding it...

Well that sucks but I bet you already knew that. I haven't had anything like this happened to me but it reminds me of a commercial where a dog swallows a cell phone and it is on hold the guy is worried because of his minutes and he could be roaming. Well if you ever get the other half let me know. I want to know how you did it. I'm sorry I just can turn it off.

Yuck! lol I've had dogs get into the trash and chew on dirty diapers (NASTY!!) and I had one that LOVED Tootsie Rolls, but I've never had one that ate money! Well, not literally, anyway. ROFL My husband used to complain about the AMOUNT of money I spent on my pets but they never actually ATE money! Good luck in finding the other half! I hope it wasn't shredded before it was eaten!

Wheww what a snack for a dog that was almost a sack of dog food lol!!
My dog is a labrador and knowing that playful dog they really love to bite things specially sleepers and even my favorite jeans was a victim too specially when their tennis ball is nowhere to found you will gonna see them biting something.
I really hope you find the other half of your $20 dollar lol!!!
