| Puppy Emma ate matches Our 5 month old yorkie, Emma, was caught eating a book of matches and we don't know how serious this may or may not be. Has anyone ever had any experience with this sort of situation? Please let us know ASAP! Thank you |

| I've never been in that situation but my pups have eaten paper before it just gets pooped out. But then again matches have that red thing at the end so i'd check with a vet just to be on the safe side. |

| Here is some info I found: http://ask.metafilter.com/mefi/25545 From what I read, sulpher is low in toxicity, but if I were you, I'd still check with your vet! I hope Emma is doing okay!!!
