OMG i had the worst scare today with Peeka! I had just gotten up and come downstairs i took Peeka and Daisy out to potty and came back in. i was checking in on YT and Daisy was running around and Peeka was chewing on his new bully stick i bought. I had bought these new ones they are in the shape of a circle i thought they would be safer and last longer.... well..... i was soooooo wrong!! i hear this gagging noise so i turn to see what was going on and to my surprise Peeka had gotten the ring in his mouth and flipped it over the back of his head
I freaked out thinking it was strangaling him i was so scared! I took another look and seen it was gagging him because it was stil in his mouth! I called my vet and they told me to rush him in. Peeka was so scared i thought he was going to have a heart attack on the way there. I got to the vet and they took me right back they took Peeka in the back and they were telling me they might have to put him out under anesthesia to remove it
I was a mess by this point. After about 10 minutes the vet assistant comes back in and said they had got it off but just barely they had to use bolt cutters and they almost didn't work. They checked his mouth for cuts and also for broken teeth but he had none thank goodness. I had rushed him there really fast lol. It cost $80.00 OMG Geeze!
We are back home and i have to watch him for pain and general stuff but omg talk about a scare! I am posting pics of it and also a warning for all PLEASE DO NOT BUY THESE FOR YOUR BABIES ... I am also writing the company so they can put a warning on the label or change the design i don't want this to happen to anyone else.
