Praying for you and Betty Boop... |
Here is the # for ASPCA poison control Reach the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Hotline 24 hours a day at 888-426-4435. Also - here is a link to some ASPCA articles - there is a practice brief on iron toxicity if you scroll down the page. Just FYI. I didnt read it, but it seems informative if it is iron. Animal Poison Control Center Articles for Veterinarians : ASPCA Professional |
OMG that is just horrible! What brand grill do you own? Maybe you could do a search to see if you could find the info out tonight. Not that it would make any difference overnight. Please keep us all posted how things go over the next few day. Hopefully she will be able to pass it all and everything will be fine. One step at a time. :( |
Hoping for Betty Boop to pass all the metal she swallowed and hoping you get some rest while waiting for it to happen. |

Thank you for the suggestion to call ASPCA poison control. This little dog has become my new bff! I love her more than words can say. She is at my feet wanting me to crawl in bed with her. She keeps running up and down the stairs which is her way to tell me to GET OFF THE COMPUTER. I'M SLEEPY!! :D |
Please keep us updated! Poor Betty Bop!! |
Thanks everyone! It means a lot to me to have everyone here praying for her. What a great group of people. I'm off to bed and will see how she does overnight. The vet said she will probably be pooping tonight, might be bloody. I hope not. :(:( The ER vet said it wasn't that the metal will cut her, but rather the inflammation it will cause. I'll keep posting updates. |
Let us know how she does - I'll be checking here first thing for your update. I think she will be ok - I'm so glad you took her right to the vet - she is lucky to have you as her peep. |
I just can't imagine how scared you are. :big_hug: |
She will be in my prayers. |
wow, just catching up. I will keep Betty Boop in my prayers. I can only imagine what you are feeling. Hugs to you both. |
I dozed off and I was dreaming about Betty Boop playing in her pool. I checked back here as soon as I got up. I really hope this is all behind you very soon and that BB is back to herself running around and playing, as usual. You are such an amazing mom, daughter, and person, and I am so sorry that you have to go through this. We are all pulling for you and praying for your baby and you. I know how worried you are; I am, too, but I am an optimist and really believe your precious little girl will get better. These babies put us through so much worrying, but our lives are so much better, fuller, and filled with love because of them. You are in my thoughts and prayers, Lisa :heart to |
Oh no! This is so scary. I'm sending lots of prayers along with my best wishes. Please keep us updated! |
Well, it's morning and we both made it through the night. She slept well and was up doing her usual thing this morning. She has pooped 5 times since we came home last night. W/D works miracles in that department! :p:) In fact, I put on the ol' latex gloves and did what any good mom would do........I went through it looking for metal pieces. :D Couldn't find any! She is acting completely normal this morning. I have a call in to her regular vet and he will call me back. The dh was out last night picking up the pieces of scraped off iron out of the grass. He is going to mow it with a bag attached to the lawn mower tonight. I just don't see how he can get every piece of it. Betty Boop is a nudger and she finds anything and everything in between blades of grass. Over time, I imagine it will works its way down deeper. I'll post again after I talk to the vet. Thanks everybody for your prayers and good thoughts. |
Just reading this now, I'm glad Betty Boop had a good night and hope that she continues to do well and passes everything. And yes, you are a good mother:) |
