How do I stop my dog from collecting snails?
She is let out each night before bed to do her business and is allowed out to play in the garden during the day. I do try to supervise her but she's a sneaky little bugger and we have two dogs. Every now and again I will catch her trotting along with one in her mouth heading towards her bed and I take it off her and throw it into newt doors garden.
I just emptied her crate and shook out her bedding to find like a dozen snails. She's clearly been storing them as theres no way for them to get in on their own and I really don't see why they would.
My house now has a snail problem. How do I stop her?

damn. i guess dogs CAN have autism.
OP, would you like it if your mom threw away the shit you collect?
>>2135346
Did you vaccinate your dog?
She appears to have autism.

I already have pet snails, I do NOT need more. We have had a chat and she doesn't seem to understand this.

Hilarious when you don't have snail slime on everything.

Looks like you'll have to spray each and every snail in your area with bitter apple deterrent.
This is cute, but could be concerning for your dog.
As a fellow snail owner you know that snails carry many diseases and parasites. Having unclean snails in her mouth (or near) is a problem.
I suggest spotlight checking her before entering the house. Maybe wash her mouth once a week.
If you want to go more drastic - kill all of the snails in your yard.

Boil and eat the snails.

>kill all the snails
You really think you can get rid of me?

honestly, yeah, kill em. unless you've got a compost heap, there's no good reason to keep the snails around.
at night, when the dog's inside for the night, put out a bowl and fill it with cheap beer. they'll climb in and drown. also pat down coffee grounds in the soil of your garden so you have a daytime deterrent.
Snails carry schistosomiasis, meningitis, lungworms and salmonella.
OP you should try a pet-safe snail killer. I forget the name of the brand I use, but it's biodegradable. Just make sure to follow the instructions and not put too much onto the soil or put it in piles--if it's too conspicuous your dog may, like my cat did, notice how delicious it is. I mean, it is pet-safe, like I said, but still, it's probably not great to gobble mouthfuls of it at a time, which my cat does when he comes across a mound of it.
Where do you live that your dog can find snails big enough to pick up?
>throwing snails into a garden
i bet your neighbor hates you
