    A REAL-LIFE CORN-DOG

    If you are decorating your home with fake fruit or gourds galore this season, you may want to reconsider. Your pet may think it's the real deal, and as a result, attempt to eat them, just like Tacoda the Alaskan Malamute. Tacoda's owner found the hungry dog sick to its stomach after it ingested a decorative corn cob. Tacoda received surgery after being admitted for intestinal issues. While the procedure was costly, Tacoda's owners received a $1,671 reimbursement from their insurance. (Pets Best)
