My puppy (14 week black Lab female) tore the leaves off one of my strawberry plants... most of it was laying on the ground, so I doubts she ate much. I've moved the pot out of her reach now, and this was last night and she still seems fine. Is this harmful?

The leaves are not harmful. Had she been a full grown dog that was pregnant it may have been a slightly different story since strawberry leaves induce uterine contractions so the puppies could have been born to early.
Don't worry, she is fine. (note that dogs do like the flavor of strawberries so keep those plants away or she will eat all your berries and you will get none!)

Plants Bad For Dogs

All plants have toxins in them to resist insects. In most cases plants are not harmful to dogs. Not enough toxin to hurt a dog. There are some ornamental plants that are deadly for dogs.
If the plants grow any strawberries be sure it is away from her or she will eat all the berries. Dogs really love strawberries and they are good for them.

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://biturl.im/aU0OM
A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

Yes, Strawberry Plants are bad for dogs.
They are highly addictive...And can lead Man's-Best-Friend into a downward spiral...Often leading to a life of crime...in order to support this nasty habit.
You shouldn't have moved the Pot out of her reach...It's actually a much milder drug than Strawberry Leaves.
I'd suggest you both consider Counselling immediately...Perhaps you can get to the Root of this Problem!

A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tr.im/H3J67
If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.
It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

The best flower to attract bees and butterflies into the garden is Sedum Spectabile.This is a perennial plant,fleshy leaves and in late summer/fall can be literally covered with these insects.

dogs are so stupid. I'm surprised she didn't' fill her stomach with the dirt and rocks in the surrounding area of your strawberry plant.
i doubt it'll do damage, it's natural isn't it?
