sammy03 · 10-16-2005, 07:23 PM

My two year old has just ate a 2 in X 2in X 1 in block of cheese!!! Has anyone had this happen before. If so what did you do? Any help would be great. Little dude snuck up onto the counter!

Hi Sammy and welcome to YT! We talking about a 2 year old human or 2 year old furbaby? With the pup, watch him. It could do 2 things...clog him up or give him the runs. If it clogs him up you will want to talk to your vet about a laxative. If he gets the runs you may run the risk of dehydration...again, talk to your vet.

Mine eat cheese all the time!

Bentley&BitsysMom · 10-16-2005, 07:28 PM

LOL! Welcome to YT!!! I'm not for sure but would think the only harm would be that he may be a little constipated. I give mine cheese for a treat sometimes, but of course, not that size

I think he'll be fine.

txshopper73 · 10-16-2005, 07:29 PM

yeah, that is a lot of cheese! mine get slices occasionally and we haven't had any problems but not that large amount.

YorkieShadow · 10-16-2005, 09:24 PM

I would just keep an eye on him and if he seems to be having trouble, Take him to the vets.

medusa512 · 10-16-2005, 09:54 PM

if it is your child, constipation is definately likely. have him eat a plum or some prunes if he seems to have some trouble.

if it is your puppy, i hope it doesn't give him the runs. that sucks with dogs. give him lots of water so he doesn't get dehydrated and it helps w/digestion.

that's as much as i know.
good luck!

LOL - Yep! That is a bit bigger piece than we give 'em for treats, isn't it?

If Kacee was ever faced with the opportunity, I'm certain she would do her darndest to get it.

Mom has now learned that her little baby can now scale a mountain to get to cheese. That little one just consumed a year or two's worth of cheese treats! Shouldn't be more than a bit constipated though. At least, I hope not. That's really too bad. The vet can probably tell you more.

Don't panic yet , Fancy , my 3 yr old yorkie ate a piece almost that big while we were entertaining on the deck a few weeks ago ( the little sneak waited till my back was turned) and she had no effect at all except maybe she didn't hog her food quite so much that evening.

mustangbee · 10-17-2005, 06:04 PM

Well, first let me say
WELCOME!!!!
Ok, he's two, that is a lot of cheese,
but he's going to be OK.
He might get constipated,
just keep a eye on him, have
him drink lots of water, I'm sure
he will be fine!

PLease keep us posted!

Bentley&BitsysMom · 10-17-2005, 07:09 PM

How is your "little dude who snuck up on the counter for a hunk a cheese"

I am assuming you are talking about your little four legged friend

How is he??? Hope you stick around for a while! And maybe post some pics of your little fellow!! This is a great forum to be a part of ESPECIALLY when the little rascals get into trouble and you need advice!!! Do hope you'll post again!!

Bruce's_Mom · 10-17-2005, 08:22 PM

Bruce eats little pieces of low fat cheese all the time for special treats. It is his absolute favorite!!! Sammy should be fine but I would be careful about large quantities because of the risk of pancreatitis is these little guys ingest too much fat. Hope Sammy is feeling well!

jasmilly · 10-18-2005, 04:34 PM

Glad to see mines not the only cheeky one! Leah stole a bag of Liver treats of my table! She did not feel so good that day! But just keep an eye yours and make sure that they keep up their water.
