My dog needs surgery
 

So my Swissy needs surgery to remove a ****ing hunk of fabric she decided she just couldn't live without eating. They are doing it today. I guess it's lodged in her intestine. Dammit!

Thoughts to you and yours. Hope everything goes well for your pup.

That sucks! My parents have a yorkie-poo that eats clothes all the time. We always joke that when she dies you'll be able to make an entire wardrobe out of all the fabric she has to have stuck in her stomach.

On another note, one of my dogs is having surgery tomorrow. Second freaking dog of mine to blow out a knee!! And this shit isn't cheap either....his is gonna cost about $3,500.

Best of luck.

ouch. Hope the best for your dog

Had to so the same to my bulldog with bologna string.

Likewise! They're a part of the family...always a little tough to see them in pain.

I hope it all goes well and the dog somehow associates the ordeal with what she ate and won't do it anymore. My rott used to love to chase golfballs (not on a course, ones that I'd hit for her in the pasture) and she would swallow them instead of spitting them out and going after the next one. My vet said to force a quarter cup of hydrogen peroxide down her throat and the golfballs would come out. Sure enough, they did violently and soon, she figured out why she had to get that stuff forced down her neck that made her hurl and stopped swallowing golfballs.

Prayers sent tooge

Been there and done that. Good luck.

My boxer used to eat clothes and poop them out the next day. Always thought she would get plugged up but she never did. She eventually grew out of it.
Hope you dog goes through the surgery ok and is back to normal soon....

had to pull a chewed up garbage bag out of my bulldogs ass once. damn thing drug me all over the yard.
sec

ROFL

The visual on that is entertaining. :D

You guys' with pups' going in under the knife. Did the Dr. ask if you wanted to do a blood test 1st? I guess the blood test checks to make sure their heart can handle the anesthesia.

We had a Bengal that almost didn't come back to. At that time, vet said no more anesthesia. Now there's a shot for it.



Anyhoots, our Golden is going in for dental work. He has 2 broke teeth that they plan to pull & his teeth/breath is pretty bad. We'll keep up on brushing after the cleaning.

Our house could use some maintenance but our pupster comes 1st. He & I have become really close. If I stop too fast he runs into the back of my chair since he's always following me around.




It doesn't get much better than this:
