| Ate a little rock. Construction workers were at our house early in the afternoon and they were fixing the ceiling and they had to spray the wall with some machine that had rocks in it so it can look rocky...well I caught one small rock in her mouth and took it away and I am afraid if she ate 1 or two that I didn't catch off her. Is it dangerous, or will she digest it easily ? They are extremely small. |

BANNED! | If it is extremely small I really think it will pass. You would be suprised at what they can have come out the other end. I would watch her closely for any signs of distress depending on the size of the rock or if its more of a pebble it should be okay. If your not sure about it call your vet to be safe. |

BANNED! | I'm pretty sure I know what type your talking about and those are very very small and it should pass naturally if it was swallowed. She might not have eaten any as your not sure, so I would just keep an eye on her for a few days just incase she did ingest one you might not have noticed. I wouldnt worry too much those are so small I bet you dont even notice it in her poo. |

| Up until this past summer, Lucy, my pug ate gravel for snacks. No problems. We did ask the vet and he said she shouldn't, we knew that, but she would be alright. We did everything to stop her. gravel is all around the foundation of my house so no way could we keep her out of it. thank God she didn't have any problems and has since stopped. |
