Speaker 1 (00:00):
I love this. They do this every year. This comes out,
this list of the finalists for the Strangest Pet insurance
claims of the Year. We all have pets, they've all
gotten into things that they should not have and we
actually on Facebook two to come up with some just
strange things that they've eat. But let me give you
an example. So Wash is a dog, a mutton Tennessee,

(00:21):
that got sick because he wouldn't stop eating cicadas. And
his owner doesn't know how many eight but that's all
he eight and he had.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
To go to the Oh my God, tell me full
of cicadasatus. It kind of reminds me of Murphy. It's
it's it looks sad, but it's not. He brought it
on himself. But you'll see the other cats on the
balcony and Murphy's on on the inside with the screen shut. Yeah,
Murphy has one goal when he gets out there, and
it's to eat Warren's tomato plant. Oh no, that's not
the problem. Warren doesn't care about his tomato plant. But

(00:52):
the second he does that, he comes in and throws
up all.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Over the house.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Yeah, it doesn't learn a lesson, right, He will go
back out and do it almost learn.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's funny.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
They know what they don't like when you want, like
when you want him to go out and go to
the bathroom. Right, they're picky, but but they'll remember to
eat the same stupid thing.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
Did eating rabbit poop make the list because that's Shelby's
favorite hobby.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
No, but it could certainly be a finalist. Maddie, a
bulldog in Virginia ate a preserved alligator taxidermis used toxic
chemicals to preserve the things. Yeah, so Maddie had to
go to the ve.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
No. I'm going to assume if we put out this
list and we can like laugh about it, everybody made it.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Doctors were able to get None of these are right. Zaia,
a dog in California, came nose to nose with a
loose bull out on a walk. He defended his owners
and lost the tooth when it kicked them. That deserves
an insurance claim, it.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Sure does, And I'm glad that's all that happened. Why
would a bunny run into I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Know, I don't know. Hazel, a great Dane Saint Bernard
mix in New Jersey picked a fight with a groundhog
and lost a bite on her paw earned her a
trip to the vet. What do you have, by the way?
On Facebook?

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Really sad so Pam said a bathroom towel had to
have surgery to remove it.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Jennifer said, my boys love rabbit poop and aunts. Lourie
said lego heads, just the heads, not the body.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Let's see that's funny. A picky dog, right.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Danielle said, my Lola thinks that Q tips are treats.
She goes nuts for one, and Mary said her collar,
buckle and the tree, the crate tray.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Ah, here's the cat, Alison. The only cat in the
running this year is Salem. Her owner in New York
couldn't find one of their air pods and thought she
ate it. The air pod still isn't turned up. She's okay,
but they think that cat ate that AirPod. Yeah, were
the potty?

Speaker 2 (02:57):
If it comes yeah, I mean you hope it comes
through otherwise.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Fox Trot is a great Dane in Texas that stole
a full turkey leg from her owner on Thanksgiving and
swallowed it whole. Oh no, the bone had to be removed.
See my old rest in peace bulldog Mario. If Mario
got a hold of something, you weren't gonna win. Like,
he doesn't matter if he loves you, it doesn't matter.
If he was a loyal dog in the standoff, he'd win.

(03:24):
He would Frank. If you raise your voice and go
like Frank, he'll like, he stops and he'll drop. Whatever
it meant, Mario would plow through it. Yeah, if if
he wanted to swallow this phone and never get that phone,
you'd have to lure him with something else.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Can do a little blueberry treat that he used to get.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Oh my god, Duke elaboratetriever mix in Ohio lick some
peanut butter off a spatula and ended up swallowing this spatula.
Oh and finally Bella in Illinois ate an entire bouquet
of flowers. Her owner found her covered in pollen.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
You mentioned Great Danes a couple of times, like Scooby Doo.
I don't know if you guys have seen the tiktoks.
I'm sure it's probably on Instagram reels as well. There
was a Great Dane as a passenger on a plane,
had a seat, was sitting in the seat, And I've
seen it from multiple viewpoints and people on the plane.
It is the cutest thing.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
I love that.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, I mean the Great Dane is like a person.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
So it makes such slobbery too. Right, is the Great
Gaine the one that's slobbery or that's the same, Yeah,
all right. If you jump on the Jay Towers in
