Moose was out in the back yard and I popped my head out to check on him when I heard some loud crunching. I found he had broken into a coconut and was eating it! He has always loved playing with coconuts and will shred off the husk but I don't think I have even seen him make it all the way to the nut before, nevermind inside the nut! When the pieces of shell broke off he got the meat off and would spit out the shell which surprised me. Maybe he has done this before... in his former life? He seemed like a pro for sure.

Once the hole was big enough he drank the milk and then used his lower jaw to gnaw all the meat off the inside! I was a little worried he would have a tummy ache if I let him finish it off but after talking to Lyza (vet tech in a former life) decided to let him go for it. He ended up getting nearly all of it out!I have a huge pile of coconuts in my yard and I guess now that he has figured out that there is yummy food in them I need to make sure he does not get too many. I don't think coconut is bad for dogs but I am thinking it might be good to ration them!

wow moose that is so impressive - we gotta try that
