Our Lab would, greedy fker.

He springs into life when the kittens have a dump to eat the contents of the litter tray if we don't empty it immediately

Our Bull Mastiff was licking up the blood when I cut my hand quite badly. Either trying to help or she's got the taste now....

My cats would probably have a sniff and then stalk off in a huff to a house where something better was available.

I'd hide the sharp knives, (when she's not looking.)

The only pet we have is Jenson the fish Alonso died. He would have a job eating me.

Pistonheads member wins again with another bizarre but intriguing topic..

No idea. I don't have any pets. So someone would just notice the smell in about a month,
break in and find me slumped in front of old episodes of TOS with a half eaten pasty by my side..

You'd have to die whilst feeding him with your hand or face ending up in the tank. hehe

The next time I see my Lab staring at me, I'll know what the bd is thinking - "he'll provide me with a good meal when he pops his clogs".

I had up until reading that National Geographic article assumed it was love in his eyes!

After the "pensioner dog orgy thread" it seems some would eat you if you're a female and alive and willing.

Probably


If I lie on the floor face down Logan gets frantic he tries to get under me and lift me up when that doesn't work licking and nibbling my chin usually. I had a period of ill health a couple of years ago he would lick my face when I collapsed not great when you are trying to breath and a 20kg dog is trying to smoother you.

I'm sure if there was an open would he would lick at it.

It's odd when you think about it. We share our house with an animal that could quite easily get the better of us if she felt like it. Luckily she is very docile and like most BMs spends most of her time asleep. ( or is she!!!)

What about the ones that eat you while leaving their dog food untouched?

My lab is staring at me oddly as I type this. Is that drool on his lips?

My cats would happily make a start on me when I was on the floor incapacitated, they wouldn't hang about waiting for me to die.
