A new one: Dog eats fake boob
Here's something you might not have thought of: A frisky dog, it seems, will eat fake boobs if you leave them within reach.
The LA Times quotes veterinarian Eric Barchas describing a couple who brought their five-year-old terrier into his animal hospital.
The woman carried with her a chewed-up box containing one stick-on, synthetic breast, size B, and one empty tray where the other had been.
In his account, Barchas wrote on Dogster:
I evaluated the piece of silicone, coated in polyurethane, that the dog had not consumed. Although it was non-toxic, there was little doubt that the other half of the pair ultimately would lodge in the intestines. The dog only weighed 15 pounds. Size B was too much for this guy to handle.
The pup made it. Read the full tale here.

Ok, it's just my little pet peeve, but I notice that the original article uses the word breast, while yours uses, in the headline no less, a word I just hate.
