On the other hand, service dogs and a percentage of pet dogs can be extremely intelligent (in some cases, smarter than the owners, not just the kids!).  Your dog may be one of the smart ones, but it does take a certain lack of intelligence to eat non-food items on purpose.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Karen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 10th 2008 2:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dog Swallows Owner's Cell Phone -- Whole]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</guid><description><![CDATA[Shame on "you" for comparing an animal to a child!!

Such behavior manifests as: cribbing in animals, or pica in humans.  Animals and people will eat non-food stuff in an attempt to satisfy the deficiency--ice, hair, wood, soil, etc.  The better prepared commercial dog food will include the proper balance of minerals & vitamins to cure or alleviate this type of behavior.  People need to supplement with minerals because we are not getting what our bodies need from our food supply...no matter how well balanced it is.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Helena]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 13th 2008 2:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dog Swallows Owner's Cell Phone -- Whole]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah the dog is the stupid one - but we are the ones that swallow all the crap that we call food that makes us overweight, or sick - and then call it nutrition.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Violet]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2008 8:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dog Swallows Owner's Cell Phone -- Whole]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</guid><description><![CDATA[This person is so wrong! If you call yourself a "journalist" just for writing little articles like this one where we can all agree the lack of knowledge in regards to it. Calling dogs STUPID, who do you think you are? You are obviously not a pet lover and I can respect that, but calling them names is not right. Look, they are not humans, they are animals. Their brain functions are completely different form ours....and last time I checked, there are some "stupid" humans out there as well (you being one for example), Do not write articles if you dont know what you are talking about.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alex H.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2008 1:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dog Swallows Owner's Cell Phone -- Whole]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'v owned some very intelligent dogs in my time, but I did know one really stupid one. <br><br>Back in the early 70''s my aunt's weimeraner ate the sheet (yes a full size flat bedsheet) that she had placed in his doghouse. We didn't realize it until it came out the other end, still whole! He was using his teeth to assist the emergence when we saw him. She was an R.N and assisted him. He was fine, but no more sheets in the doghouse.<br><br>A few weeks later, he ate the padding and vinyl off the lawnmower seat. He was a really stupid dog..]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cheryl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2008 4:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dog Swallows Owner's Cell Phone -- Whole]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/09/doberman-dines-on-cell-phone/</guid><description><![CDATA[Some dogs are smart, some dogs are stupid.
