It sounds like they really enjoy picking them and eating them!!!
All strawberries must die...
... or at least that's what the pups seem to think. The plants trailing my garden are starting to develop strawberries and the puppies seem to think it's great fun to pick the GREEN ones and eat them...this Can't be good for them. It would be impossible for me to fence them off since they are wandering all over my flowerbeds (the plants and the dogs)... I actually got so desperate yesterday I found two berries that had turned red/ripened and gave them each one of those (hoping that by eating the ripe ones they wouldn't get sick as eating green ones). I'm not sure if it's fun for them to pull the berries off/chase each other or if they just like the way they taste, but Green????!!!! I just don't get it...

LOL! I can relate. Susie & Sadie are doing the same thing. I have a raised planter bed full of strawberry plants and the girls just wont leave them alone! They remember getting strawberries from it last year (and LOVED them), so they've been checking for berries ever since the plants started to grow again. Now that the berries have started, they keep trying to pick them green. You'd think they would at least wait for them to ripen! Apparently they're not picky when it comes to strawberries - they'll take them ripe or not.

*I like the way you think, Crystal, but they are definitely still in the 'what's mine is mine, what's yours is mine stage*
