[QUOTE="donna723, post: 644597, member: 1883"] I'm just now seeing this thread so you may have already seen a vet. Is she eating and drinking normally? If she's having any problems, you should take her to the vet for an x-ray. Are the pieces of the toy that are left jagged? A little late for this now but if mine ever swallowed something small and irregular shaped or jagged, I've immediately fed them bread to cushion the object and help it move along. The main thing to worry about is if pieces of the toy create an intestinal blockage which is an emergency situation and requires immediate vet care, probably surgery. And it may not happen right away. Foreign objects can sometimes stay in a dogs stomach for a very long time before causing a problem. I know a lady whose dog chewed off a corner of her living room rug. But she has several dogs and didn't know which one did it and wasn't sure if the missing piece had been swallowed. SIX MONTHS LATER one of her dogs started vomiting and up came the missing piece of carpet! [/QUOTE]
