dog ate his bandage (*$@# you HJM)
Okay so I was busy with the movie quiz (thanks Jack) and my dog ate his
bandage 2" gauze pad and paper tape off his foot, he left it on all night without bothering it but I guess today was a no go...so I am wondering what can I give him to "grease him up" for easier digestion of the gauze pad.. there was no plastic on the pad Thanks, Michelle |

You can always give him a little olive oil, but we've had dogs eat a lot more cloth than that and think nothing of it. Of course, our smallest dog weighs 60 lbs. |

This reminds me of a joke that I recently read: KEYBOARD ALERT A man enters a bar with his pet monkey. The man walks straight up to the bar when his monkey companion jumps on a nearby pool table grabs a pool ball and swallows it whole. The bartender, shocked, asks the man “Why in the hell did he do that?” The man replies, “He always eats things whole.” Two days latter the same man with his monkey go into the same bar. This time the monkey follows the man to the bar. The monkey grabs a peanut off the bar sticks it up his ass and then eats it. The bartender shocked at this asks, “Why did he stick it up his ass first?” The man replies, “Ever since the pool ball he makes sure everything will fit.” -- Marcel and Moogli |

I gave him some olive oil, will that work?? What breed? He's a lovely mutt.. And then just keep an eye on him. He should be just fine. Don't sweat it. Now get back to The List! I am trying but I have seriously drawn a blank.. Michelle |

Well 74.4 lbs. but you know how males like to make things bigger if it was my female I'd say 74. LOL Done, now back to the list nefore buzz beats me to more answers. Michelle |

Yeah I was not to worried about the gauze pad until I called my vet and she was in surgery so one of her assistants said "This may cause blockage, give him some cat laxatives and make sure he passes it" I have given him olive oil and I will be dissecting poop YAY!!
