I think Buck has a blockage - HE'S HOME!!! *Pictures on pg 5*

Well, sweetie, at least the worst is over and Buck is in good hands right now. Luckily you were wise enough to catch the problem. You can never blame yourself, my goodness, if it smells rotten and it's edible, they'll eat it.

Once, after taking off my knee highs and throwing them on the bed, then going out of the room for a split second, I walked back in and saw RB Cody doing "Gulp". Yep, and there was only one knee high on the bed. I thought my heart stopped. Believe it or not, and I hope this will make you smile a little, a day later (after I kept a watchful eye on him) his poop was IN the knee high!!! My eyes were like saucers and I remember gaping for about 10 minutes in disbelief!

So, we both were lucky. Buck will be just fine. You have so many cuties to watch over. You may have to grow eyes behind your head! Try and have a good night sleep. Buck will be home soon in your loving arms. Hugs....Karen

I'm sososo sorry, Sarah! :( this must be really hard for you & Buck. Our pups are not immortal, bad things can happen even if you do everything right. I'm so happy he's doing ok, I wish him the best for recovery. He's a strong young guy so he should recover well!

This totally does remind me to be extra careful with my boys, too.

I'm so glad Buck is ok! How scarey! As others have said, dogs eat the strangest things. We'd only had Star for a few weeks and she ate a balloon the morning of my son's birthday party! poor little thing, we had to make her vomit, which thankfully she did. There it was - a bright red balloon.
Buck will be back home with you soon, the vet techs will take really good care of him for you. ;) ((hugs))

LMAO!! :D
Karen, I sure hope that did bring a smile to her face because I sure the hell know I'm laughing about it!

Sarah, I'm glad the worst is over and now all you have to do is make sure he heals up!
Hugs to you and Buck!

Hows the Meester doing, Sarah?

Ah, Buck - I'm so glad you're okay! What a scary thing to have to stay with the white-coats! That pig toe must have been mighty tasty. :)

Oh my, poor Buck and I know how upset you must be. I'm glad to hear he's doing better and I hope he recovers quickly, he's got a great momma who loves him so much! I always worry about my pups eating toys, they tear them up so fast, I have the top of our fridge filled with toys needing surgery because I take them away when they get torn.

Thank you everyone! :) Y'all are awesome!

Buck is doing fantastic. I nearly burst into tears when I saw him this morning. He was bouncing around like nothing had happened!

He is still at the vet. This morning we stayed for 2 hours and went back again this afternoon for an hour. We're going back in the morning and tomorrow afternoon and then he can come home Monday if he keeps the food down. He had water this afternoon for the first time and he did great, and tomorrow morning he'll get his first taste of food. If there's no vomiting, he can come home Monday! :D

Glad to hear everything is going great!! I hope he does good with his food so he can come back home!! I'm sure he misses you! :)

I'm so glad he's doing well. I hope he gets home Monday!

whew! i am SO glad to hear hes doing well Sarah!

I am so happy to hear he is doing well! :) give him a gentle hug for me, please. :)

Glad to hear he's recovering well. Poor guy.

Phew!! Glad to hear he's doing well!
Can't wait till you get him back home!

Oh Sarah, I am so sorry! This is the first I've read this thread but I am so glad to see happy news. I worked all week and yesterday I worked a 12 hour shift, so I am just pooped!

Anyways, I'm so so so so happy to read GOOD news come out of this. :D

Give him a great big {{Gentle HUG}} from me, please!
