My 1 year old beagle keeps eating paper, cardboard, cotton and plastic. Is it a sign of something? Also he tucks his lips under his teeth. He has come from an unstable environment. Can I help him in some way? If there are any special chew toys, or any supplements that I can give him, that can help him calm down, please suggest. Please suggest some solution for this.

If your pet has nutritional deficiencies, he may crave for non food items s.a., paper...Depletion of minerals can leave ur pet crave for paper like substances..

Keep paper or paper towels out of his reach..Try to distract your dog with chew toys...Chew toys are available in Pet shops...
