[QUOTE="donna723, post: 403009, member: 1883"] Oh Star, what an ordeal! Someone who is not a devoted animal lover might not understand, but I know just how you feel! Just the thought of something being seriously wrong with your baby and worrying that you might lose them is devastating! Mine are such chewers that I always worry about them swallowing things they shouldn't. Ragan once swallowed (then spit up) a chunk of foam rubber bigger than her head. Then she tried to swallow a long strip of rawhide and ended up with one end down in her stomach and the other end sticking out of her mouth ... she couldn't breath! Luckily I saw her in time and pulled it out! They've occasionally poop out colorful bits of rubber toys and if they ever chew up crayons, the after affects are downright festive. It's such a worry though to have one like yours that just hoovers up everything they can get hold of and swallows it! The husky that my daughter had did that but usually she would just eat cat litter and irritate her whole digestive tract ... we practically had a standing appointment at the vets office! The worst she ever did was to eat half a carton of plumbers putty! I was afraid it would harden up in there but apparently it went right through her! And sometimes they can eat something weird and it will stay in their stomach for months before it starts to bother them! I know a lady whose small Boston somehow managed to swallow a 5" square of carpet and it stayed in her digestive track for five months before she started getting sick and vomiting! [/QUOTE]
