I am so glad that Thor is out of surgery. Prayers for his recovery.

I'm glad Thor pulled out of the surgery alright. It's interesting that he'd pick that up, but nothing shocks me anymore. My brother's dog ate Christmas lights off the tree the first year they had him.

But still continuing to send prayers your way! Thanks for keeping us updated!

Sending get well prayers for Thor and hugs for both of you. My Sammy had the same surgery when he was 4. The vet saved what she took out. It looked like a tire from a toy car, but we weren't really sure. I don't know how he even swallowed it!! Sam was in the hospital for about 5 days after surgery and came home with a pain patch (fentanol-not sure of spelling). The hardest part was to keep him enclosed in the dining room and kitchen so he couldn't jump and be wild. He was a little subdued the first day home. Then we returned to have the pain patch removed and a few days later went back again for a recheck. Hope your baby Thor is home soon. It is so nerve wracking when they are sick.

Thor the Lamp

Eater...well, chalk this one up to a new chew treat!

Well...on the brighter side of this, you were able to get him the immediate care he needed and he will live a long life with you by his side!

Probably a good time to survey your home for any other items that you might consider Thor could munch on and then, remove them from his reach.

I was just telling MichaMyLove (aka, Betty) how my last two foster puppies left me a "carving" remembrance on the corners of my beautiful Pottery Barn Bedroom set...I was lucky though, they did not suffer for it and they did a beautiful job of evening out the grooves on each side of the bureau & armouire...

Gentle hugs for Thor and you too!

Great info and thank you for sharing. It makes me start thinking of how I'm going to contain my little instigator..... We have 4 doxies that are his constant companions but he is my little trouble maker. I'm thinking I'm going to have to section off part of the house and keep him in an area where he cant jump.... hum.....

Thor Kent · 12-14-2011, 02:19 PM

As soon as the vet saw it she said YUP that's what we pulled out of his tummy. At least I know what it was and know what I need to do in order for it to not happen again.
Thor is doing remarkably well. I got to hold him at sit with him he was wiggling his little tail which has been down for 4 days. I was soooooo happy to see that - and he gave me lots of kisses as I did him. It was sad to see the incision but the vet did a very nice job.
I'm feeling better but wont be complete until he is home in 72 hours. I'm in the count down.
THANK YOU EVERYONE WHAT AN AWESOME GROUP YOU ARE!

Just seeing this thread, glad that Thor is doing well.

My lil friend · 12-14-2011, 07:29 PM

So glad that Thor is going to be ok. I will be keeping him in my prayer for a full,speedy recovery.

Sandysbabies · 12-14-2011, 07:58 PM

So glad little Thor is going to be okay. Dudley like to chew on wicker too. I had to take out some wicker beds I had for my schnauzers because he chewed on them. I have wicker on the patio but they don't seem to bother it outside. Probably when he gets over the chewing stage he won't even pay any attention to it. I have one wicker bed left in the back of the house and so far Dudley has not chewed on it. These little buggers get into everything. I feel like sometimes I have 4 kids all going through the terrible two's. Keep us informed on that baby but he is going to be fine. Thank God you got him to the vet in time.

So glad to hear that Thor..the lamp eater..is doing fine after his surgery....how scary! Don't forget to check for wicker baskets too. Trixie chewed when she was a puppy, but her interest was in my dining room table and chair legs

She did quite a job on a few claw feet legs. They are tricky little guys....always into something.

Taryn0405 · 12-15-2011, 06:29 AM

Thor...Former God, notorious lamp eater...

Love it!

Glad he's feeling better and on the mend!
