Anything with goldie doesn’t count, especially if it’s all goldie :). Ours ate anything we would eat plus grass, horse manure, compost, ring-pulls, socks, money, rat poison, and a football (whole). Those last two were a trip to the vet.

Goldie hearts are so pure, it bleeds out into their coats…. But no one ever accused them of being overly clever.

Snickers didn’t look much like a Goldie, but her mom was one. (And she was one of the best dogs ever!)

Also it’s important to note most kids will eat all of that and more, given an opportunity, Goldie’s were bred to be eternal puppies (retrievers in general. Wouldn’t want the retriever to eat the duck or whatever.) so it’s really not their fault!
