    Prayers for cyber's Jack please? UPDATE #23

    Just got off the phone with the vet. Please send some good PT energy Jack's way. He ate a corn cob while my back was turned. I can't believe he ATE it. The vet said the next 24-48 hours are critical as to if it's going to cause a blockage on its way through. That would mean surgery.
    They said not to try & make him vomit because then it could lodge in his airway.

    I looked it up on the net & it looks like there is a pretty good chance it will just pass through.
    Pray for poop!

    Oh man. What is going on with these PT Jacks? Was it a whole ear
    lengthwise, or a smaller cob? I sure hope this passes on it's own.
    Sending positive thoughts & prayers for Jack.

    whole ear. Not a huge diameter, it was a medium size ear of corn. Thanks for the prayers....

    Oh, Jack, silly guy! My Freckles LOVED corn cobs, but she was smart enough to chew 'em into little pieces - try that next time, okay?

    My cocker/sheepdog mix (50 pound mutt) used to love corn cobs and we never thought anything of giving them to her to chew on . She would just chew them up like an edible nylabone. I hope Mr. Jack chewed it up and there will be NO problem! Oh please, please, please...

    Keep us updated.

    What IS up with these Jacks? Ashley's Jack is suddenly afraid of thunderstorms, my Jack is having kidney trouble and your Jack ate a corn cob? I am hoping like a lot of others that he chewed it up real good and all will be well --- in the end. (oh, I don't believe I added that). Thoughts and prayers coming your way.

    Well it's been about 3 hours. He's had a cup of Kashi (10 gr. fiber). a couple ww pitas, 6 or 7 high fiber crackers, and a spoonful of yogurt with digestive enzymes mixed in. Every time I walk in the kitchen he looks at me like "What can I have next, Mom?" He seems alright.
    I have to leave for a couple hours. Hope he's gonna be ok. Will let you know.
