[Dailydrool] "flea chewing"

[Molly Thompson]

One of my non assets is a champion nobler. She nibbles on furniture, herself and our basset tucker, especially when they are playing. I have always thought of it as a comfort thing for her.

He has a mouse he has nibbled on literally for a couple of years without hurting it, and within minutes of Doc finding it was relieved of it's legs, one ear and the tail. Llewis doesn't care. He still lays on the floor and nibbles on it. It is so weird!!!!!
> We can hear him nibbling. Does anyone else have a dog who does this?I think it's hysterical.
