Xilonen1991 Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Hello! So, this morning I let my dog outside to do her business, and I had to step away from the yard for a moment. When I came back to open the door for her, she had what looked like a feather sticking out of her mouth. She dropped it on the carpet to show me I guess. To me, it looked like the entire WING of a robin. We have a lot around here. No blood, and I found no feathery corpse outside. I found some small feathers by a bird bath we have out back, but that's it. My question is, did she eat the robin (I hope it got away), and if she did will my Xilo be okay? image of the "gift" she brought me, it's probably a little grainy, but if anyone could let me know what they think. I'm freaking out here! thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I’m not an expert on the subject but I would have thought she’d likely be ok. To be sure though, Keep an eye on her over the next day or two and if she starts acting out of character or becoming unwell, take her to the vets.

PaulG Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 only risk is parasites like worms, you can feed husksy raw chicken wings and portions if your on the raw food diet bones only become a problem once cooked only thing you can do is make a bird safe zone by putting a fence up to keep dogs away from birds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petertmartin Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Mine ate a chicken well more specifically she ripped the insides out and ate some parts just the other week but I've caught her eating birds on a few occasions and no issues here. I certainly don't intentionally let her but I'd say yours will be ok Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseafan Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 My 2 haven’t managed to catch one but they do this ninja jump when they fly low, a friend of mine has a female that catches them really easy, she eats them and she’s not ill with it.Sent from my iPhone using Husky Owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xilonen1991 Posted May 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Update: Xilonen seems fine, she was acting kind of lethargic yesterday, but it could be because she just wanted to be next to the A/C vent. Today, she played with and possibly ate a dying carpenter bee. I hope it was the male because the male doesn't sting. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
