Energy seems normal as of now, and is more than willing to eat and drink. Is he going to be okay? How long should I give it to pass?

Three nights ago, we caught her in the bathroom having somehow managed to wedge the lid off the metal “press pedal to lift lid” bin – purchased to keep her out. Well, she ate many paper products, but most concerning was nine tampons and plastic applicators. I’m broke. A vet once advised to feed them “Vaseline sandwiches” to lube tbeir insides and help the passing. I gave her a Tablespoon of V w/ PB several times a day (you only sandwich it if they won’t take straight up). The strings are worrisome in intestines, so to my great relief, this AM, Savannah barfed up one long woven-together chain of nine tampons. Gross. Now we need to worry about the applicator pieces. I’ll begin my work as a poo archeologist tomorrow and begin excavating poo. I also alternate between a Tablespoon of fresh pumpkin, yogurt, and fresh carrots with her meals, fyi. She’s still chipper as can be, but I know the next couple few days are critical and, of course, that will hit the weekend. Send love and prayers our way please.

Hi, was your dog OK?
My dog stole a sandwich wrapped in clingfilm off a stranger on the beach a couple hours ago, practically swalled it whole in a hurry, vet advised not to make him sick and hopefully it will pass through.

Hi Eduardo, Please take your dog to the veterinarian as soon as you can. I hope she’s feeling better soon.

He has the sweetest demeanor so I knew something was very wrong!! I called and got him right in. Well after x-rays, blood work, fluids and then being sent home with pain meds and $1400 less no answers. My dog was very thirsty and on a bland diet in which he did eat. Then 6 days later I heard horrible squeals and yelps from outside my mom was over and we both ran out. Partially hanging out of my dogs but was what I now know was part of a baggie I very carefully and slowly slid the rest of the quart sized bag out!!!! It didn’t show up on the x-ray!!! Thank God it passed my poor pup I can’t imagine the pain he was in!!!!

We vacuumed up, I checked mouth but I am afraid of sliver getting into his digestive wall. I am going to give him some oil and pray til Monday unless I notice problems. He is drinking, walking etc But he ran so quick and chewed..broke one lense but did not go to eat, he is a spitter. However, one splinter scares me.

My yorkie cannelle did the same thing. She swallowed it 9 days ago, but 4 days ago she started having diarrhea. I took her to the vet yesturday and the xray showed a 1.2 cm sized plastic piece in her upper bowels. It looked round enough and cannelle was energetic, so the vet gave kaopectate to help it pass. This evening shes afraid to sit or stretch and she puked up a bit of blood, though not too much. Im waiting to see how it goes from here.
