Please keep corn cobs away from your furbabies, they can become deadly to them if they get caught in their intestines, they can die, as was almost the case with my grandog. |
Oh, how awful for little Mojo.
When the ER Vet showed me the first set of xrays for Vivi, it looked blocked and I thought she was also going to have to have the surgery. We were really lucky that the cob was able to pass in the days she was in the ER being given fluids.
How is little Mojo now?
