| Swallowing odd things... What do you do when your pup swallows things they shouldn't? Last night Diddy got a hold of a pen cap. I got it from him but he had already broke off a part of the cap and ate it. It was the long skinny part that you would use to hook on your shirt. I am now terrified that it is going to get stuck. What should I be watching out for? He acted fine last night and this morning he ate ok but did not poop. (This happens once in a while and I think nothing of it) but since he ate part of the cap last night I am freaking out! Am I overreacting? I am at work right now but I can't stop thinking about it and want to go home to make sure he is ok.

| No your not over reacting at all. These little ones will eat everything. When Buddy was a puppy and I walked him he picked up cigarett butts, pine cones, paper or anything he could get his mouth around. He would clench his jaws together so I could not get the item out! I really thought he was going to be a terror!. You have to watch them much like you would a toddler and keep the house puppy proffed. Somehow They do outgrow it, eventually but in the mean time you needs eyes behind you head. I'm sure he will be ok if it was only a tiny piece. It should pass with no problems. |
