I hope I can add some relief to your worry, but if there are any signs that your little one is in trouble PLEASE RUN NOT WALK to the Vet.
Maxwell, King Charles Cavalier ~ eats fabric...not just a little of it but he will eat 1/4 of a quilt in no time what so ever. Only when unattended...and only when "hes in the mood" but he will ingest a substantial amount of quilt. It usually takes two days for fabric to pass his system....( and this is how we mostly find out hes been naughty...you can see the cotton in the stool) and its really fun when the lawn mower goes over it cause our front yard looks like a cotton mill....big tuffs of it everywhere.
Max is a bit bigger than your yorkie by about 10 pounds....but I also dont want you to totally freek out about the gauze. If he ate a small amount most likly it will pass with no difficulty....but if he seems to be straining....bring him in to the vet. |
