    As much shit as my lab ate for the first 3 years of his life, I really can't believe I didn't end up in your situation.

    One of my buddies just had to get his Springer unplugged. She had a blockage made up of hair and cockleburs. The assumption is that when she cleans the burs out of her hair, she has been swallowing it. She recovered quickly as good as new.

    Sorry to hear that, but glad it wasn’t more serious than it was.

    My dog had this twice. Once ripped up a baseball and ate the floss on the inside. Tore her up, she was vomiting blood everywhere. Second time she obsessively ate leaves while nauseated in the backyard. Ate so many it blocked her up. Anyway the surgery works and they recover just fine. They do tend to get acid reflux after this and I give Nuka famotidine pretty often to curb it.

    LOL. I told you. Boykins can be a handful and the need constant supervision for about a year. Thankfully, our new little guy (13 weeks old) seems to be WAY better behaved than our older (17 months old) Boykin was at this age. Hang in there...it gets better.

    Glad he is ok,
    Many years ago, I had a Golden that it happened to.
    Was a corn cob he had apparently taken from the kitchen trash can.
    I lived on an island and it took hours to get to a vet and he died on the operating table
    after the xrays showed what it was
