Dog eat bee. Anonymous
This is Scooter. I am of the opinion that she's mentally retarded somehow. All day long, she does nothing but sit around and sleep. Now that the weather has warmed up, the bees are out. There's only one thing in the world can spur this dog to action, and that's the sound of a bee. When she sees or hears one, she goes wild and jumps in the air trying to catch it. IF she does catch it, she eats it. I have watched this dog catch and consume a carpenter bee, a horsefly, and a yellow jacket. The yellow jacket kept stinging her inside the mouth, so by the time she got it down she was foaming at the mouth pretty bad. I've seen dogs snap at insects before, but never for the purpose of actually eating them.

Does anybody know why my dog eats bees? Has anyone else had a dog that eats bees?

Maybe she's getting high on bee venom. I saw on the discovery channel some monkey that rubs itself in the juices of some centipede because it gets the monkey high.

My dog does the same thing, but with flies.

We live next to a farm so we get plenty of those all year round

Haha. I like this thread. There aren't many bees where I live; instead there are lots of flies. My dogs snap at flies because I believe they have grown to hate them (as have I). Perhaps your dog, or someone the dog cared about was once bitten by a bee and now she destroys them at every opportunity. Either because she sees it as a threat (which it is) or she was so bothered by bees earlier in life that she has developed “a short fuse”. Eating equals "destroying".

I don't believe you. There's no way a cat that fat can actually jump.

When a cat gives you something they hunted for, it's a gift to you. A present sort of speak.

on one of the many trips to india my parents would drag me to, i once saw a wall gecko (there are wall geckos EVERYWHERE) swallow this gigantic wasp/hornet (in india, they have these hugeass wasps/hornets, much larger than the ones here in the states)...so it swallowed it, then spit it out, and then its tail fell off. I lol'd (was too young to be grossed out)

bitten by a bee?

Certain dogs hate the sound of larger inscets in flight because it hurts their ears.

See how your dog reacts to the sound of a dog whistle.

Do bees fall for normal "fly traps"? Maybe you could install one and hope your dog doesn't try to eat it.

And yes, my dog eats any insect that gets close to its mouth, but I've never seen him actually chasing one.

I used to have a jack russel who would eat bees and vomit them back out when they stung him.

my dad told me when he was young and living near a farm, his family had a dog, and it was the biggest and baddest dog around. Somehow the dog would always go to the farms nearby, yank cobs of corn from the corn farm and stack them in a pile in the kitchen. It's like the dog is trying to provide food for his family
