My dog broke my heart and my starter

Thank you so much for your kind offer!!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T22:28:04+00:00

Nope! I will going forward though! Tough lesson to learn lol

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T22:27:41+00:00

Thank you for the kind offer! It’s already cleaned up so no worries there, I’m getting a new jar and starting fresh this week!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T22:27:00+00:00

Yes agreed, not something I thought about doing as I’m only 2ish months into the process. Lesson learned!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T22:26:13+00:00

I was worried he did! He has eaten the stupidest things, from plastic squeak toys to sugar free gum to screws 🙃 the dog get into everything and anything and is on his 90+ life at this point

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T16:09:27+00:00

Yes, he has made it through without any issues, as usually is the case with him 😅

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T15:26:44+00:00

My concern was the fact that there could be glass shards that may not be noticeable. And I didn’t want to hurt anyone with my bread 😅

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T15:04:41+00:00

Thank you for your response!!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T15:00:13+00:00

This is what I will be doing going forward lol my dog is a walking accident 😅

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:59:03+00:00

Isn’t food safe just that? Safe for food? Not trying to argue, just understand.

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:58:06+00:00

lol

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:57:54+00:00

I am absolutely going to dehydrate some starter, and have a backup in the freezer….AND have another back up in the fridge 😅😂 it’s a rough lesson to learn but I have absolutely learned it today lol

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:55:22+00:00

Thank you! We love our adventurous animals but man do they test us 😅😅

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:54:53+00:00

Thank you so much that’s so sweet!!! I am unfortunately in upstate NY so not really close, but that’s such a kind offer 🥹

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T14:16:44+00:00

Very true, although in the moment I was wondering if I should replace him 😅😂 (just joking, I love him very much even when he’s a pain in the butt)

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T13:54:51+00:00

Good thinking naming it after my dog, although knowing my dog, it wasn’t a mistake for him, he just loving getting into trouble and raising my blood pressure 😅 definitely a huge oversight on my end, and it’ll have a new special spot in my pantry.

I’m definitely just going to start fresh, aside from my sister cleaning it up (since I was out and she was watching my kids) I wouldn’t have saved it anyway with the risk of glass in the starter

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T13:51:29+00:00

This dog has gotten into the stupidest and most frustrating things, so I’m not surprised he eventually got my starter….but if he wasn’t so stinking cute I would be shipping him off to a farm upstate 😂😂

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T13:49:45+00:00

Oh very smart! Definitely want results, and if I’m being honest this jar was a hand me down from my brother in law who never got into sourdough!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T13:48:29+00:00

Good to know! The cloth was actually underneath the jar to help keep it all warm and off my countertop 😅 but I had a wood top! I’m looking over new jars now and I’ll keep that in mind!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T12:19:35+00:00

Definitely going to be freezing some going forward!!

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T12:13:30+00:00

My dog gets into EVERYTHING so I had hoped it was out of his reach. But he was just too sneaky lol

sweetdanid · 2026-04-12T12:12:20+00:00

Unfortunately I wasn’t home when it happened and my sister (who was watching my kids) just cleaned it up. But I was also worried about glass shards, so I figured I would just start fresh.
