Very possible...it's called 'Pica' when they eat or lick foreign materials..usually dirt or rocks and often signals a mineral deficiency.. May also just be silly lab puppy behavior

I remember when LBJ's Beagles used to do the same. A friend was THE WH vet that week ...chosen from vets at Walter Reed. NOT a very popular job. Anyway, one of the dogs obstructed and had to go to surgery. Of course the human Docs took over much to the relief of my friend... Dog died on the table.. Shows to go ya
