One night at the beginning of this week AJ's dad told me Abby was on the deck playing with one of their dogs small beanie toys. He looked away, then looked back to see her swallow it! That night she woke me up I swear every hour. I was too tired to realize she probably wasn't feeling good because she ate a toy! The next day she threw it up in her kennel and continued to be sick all throughout the day until that evening!
Thursday night we were all on the deck hanging out. There was a big stuffed animal (the stuffing was out so it was like a dead rodent) that the dogs liked to play tug of war with. All of a sudden we heard Abby take a big gulp and lay funny. I looked all over frantically for the stuffed animal. It was gone. Abby swallowed it whole! This was like the size of a big wash rag! I panicked and called the vet. The on-call vet first was laughing. She said sorry I know it's not funny, but cute. Hmm not cute!! Anyways, we ended up inducing vomiting by using 3 or 4 spoonfuls of salt washed down by hydrogen peroxide. Yummy! It worked and all was happy.
No soft toys for Abby every again!
