It was another person who said that no one has to justify anything.....does that mean we never ask valid questions???? Perhaps justify was not the right word??? I was merely replying to THAT person because I DO WANT TO KNOW . Good Lord. All I asked for is PROOF that this is a valid treatment. I am NOT KIDDING when I say I have asked many vets about this ... why???? BECAUSE I WANT TO KNOW....Not because I am trying to prove it is wrong....although it very well may be. I have no clue...I have been asking for as long as I can remember...since the last post with this. This is ridiculous.

I asked the soft tissue surgeon at A&M today and he suggested the above if there are small pieces....bread and soft foods. For large pieces of glass, they can go in and remove them with a scope.

| I may be out of line here and if I am I am sorry but I felt like the post to yorkiemom1 demanding the vets name was almost like an accusation of lying. I enjoy reading posts both from yorkiemom1 and ladyjane so I have no horse in this race it is just MHO and how this post came across to me. I understand it may not of been meant that way but I also can see why yorkiemom1 took it that way. God bless all.

| OP, I hope your pup is doing well. I like to have documentation before feeding any non food items. I can't find any on this topic of using cotton, but perhaps I am missing it. Do what you think is best for your pups in consultation with your vet. Nobody has to prove anything. On the other side of that, if it is not scientifically proven or standard practice I just don't go that way for my dogs. I use the methd in my post above. If there are any serious concerns my vet would scope. My dog used to eat pieces of blanket and underwear. It was not always a pretty site. ?vomiting up fabric to needing an enema for removal of blanket pueces.. I would not purposely give him cotton... All I can say is my vet (has worked er relief at several places) would not be happy if I fed my dogs cotton. But to each their own.

| The dog who ate Christmas tree ornaments | VetLIVE I can understand how cotton would work... but wouldn't bread be digested before it gets pooped out? Nevermind... fiber is fiber, lol!

| To those who think I am wrong to ask for supportive documentation, please read the following thread and come back and tell me how I am any different than the person who asked a bunch of questions. I did not see anyone flipping out...they simply answered the questions asked. That is how people learn. And, honestly, sometimes vets and doctors are wrong....if I were YM1 I might want to look into the treatment to be sure it IS safe to do. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sic...t-happy-3.html

Note that the vet did "research" before finding her treatment on that link. Maybe she consulted with that old thread about cotton balls and glass right here on YT!! ROFLMAO!!!

| A good idea would be to get some Tupperware cups, save the glasses for when you're at the table...

I think I might write to her and ask her where she got her information. Perhaps she has the answers I am seeking. Another thing that concerns me about this treatment is giving milk to a dog who might be lactose intolerant. Would that cause vomiting? I get horrible sick on dairy products. I don't know how dogs are affected if they are lactose intolerant. With glass in the pup, if vomiting started, they could end up with nasty cuts.

| Yes but she didnt want to because she didnt want her vet critiqued and thats her perogative. You didnt just demand youve been going on and on with this. If it were me asked for a vets name I wouldnt give it either because quite frankly its no ones damn business
