Default Latex toy warning

I had bought some little soft latex toys for Roxie and Cali got one and I didn't realize until later that she had eaten 1/4 of a small one. That was Friday, Yesterday she was very lethargic, walking hunched over and not eating as usual. By last night she was restless and shaking really bad, so I took her into the er vet and they did xrays and said they didn't see any obvious blockage but her tummy was full of food and she had a lot of gas in her tummy. I opted to bring her home and watch her as she was not throwing up. This morning she pooped out these huge pieces of yellow latex, I honestly do not know how she passed them. She is acting much happier now. So I have thrown out all latex toys. I just wanted to warm anyone who has a strong chewer and was not aware that they could eat the latex. The vet also saw on her Xrays that she has spondylosis of her spine and he said she had a grade 4/4 LP. So she is pretty much a mess! He said I would get my money back from the breeder! Cali is only going to be 3 in June! Another reason to really research the Breeder you buy your pups from. I got CAli before I found YT.
