Is this normal?

OMFG

My dogs like to eat old pantballs as treats. Is this normal?

[Chaos_Theory!]

A lot of dogs sniff butt and eat crap so i wouldnt consider paintballs that far out there. I doubt they see them as treats rather just a random thing they can get in their mouth and digest.

May not be a good idea . In some balls the main ingrediant is Ethyleneglycol which is what the antifreeze in your car is made up of . If fido eats enough of them, their kidneys can shut down and you may have a very expensive trip to the local vet . But I would say they'd have to eat like a whole bag for it to be lethal .

My dog mugs them from me when im not looking. They love them. Mine also seems to really enjoy Autolube...

Ethyleneglycol is NOT a main ingredient in paintballs. Im not sure where you get your info but they are way off. Not only is it a somewhat controlled substance and it is toxic (its harmful to the invironment/living creatures). Paintballs are non toxic and biodegradable. Unless you know what your talking about dont go around throwing stuff like that out there. Working at a pharmacutical company i had to go to a whole class about the stuff since it was actually used in the first liquid medicines (and led to a number of people dying).

Paintballs are what, soap and jello, in a sence. They are non toxic to humans so I would guess also non toxic to dogs. Most dogs that have found our outlaw fields have had a picnic. And all of those dogs are still plenty healthy.

Do paintballs have as much soap as they did maybe 8-9 years ago? I remember hosing off a tree fort turned used as a bunker and it looked like we scrubbed it with dish detergent. I don't remember what brand paint it was...maybe i was just using weird paint

My cats like to tear into my paintball bags if I accidentally leave them out. I now pretty much put everything in pods as soon as I buy it. I haven't actually seen them eat one, but I have found parts of broken ones on the floor.

Nelson just came out with a new type of paint called EKG it has detergent in it because they had complains about how difficult it was to wash off.

Sounds pretty normal to me.

my dog loves paintballs.. but be careful if they eat too many they'll get sick and vomit.
but it all depends on the size of the dog, i have a siberian husky and he ate half a bag and got sick like three minutes later.

[WalkingTarget]

main ingredient in most paintballs is Ethlyene Propinol (sp?) which is the inert, bitter tasting fluid in cough syrup.


the would not allow paintballs to be filled with Ethlyene Glycol, as humans could become poisoned by getting shot in the grill of the mask....

Our dog eats paint all the time. It won't hurt them as long as they don't eat an entire case.

I would have thought that too but the older one turned on the younger when he tried to find out what she was eating. They protect them like treats.

We need to make them bigger. The eddable fetch ball. A thicker shell and cow flavored fill. Would be a hit and we could make millions

If I get shot by a huge bacon-flavored paintball, I am blaming you.
