Thank goodness that your Vets were on top of this and knew to act fast. This is a very serious condition. My Tucker had an obstruction when he lived at his last home and they had to operate as well. I've read his medical records and I realize how serious of a situation it is. But he did recover and has never had any kind of post surgery complications. I don't want to scare you, but be prepared for a fairly large bill from the Vet. It cost the people who had Tucker $800.00, although I do think he was at the hospital quite awhile due to the fact that the parents were out of town and the person staying with the family didn't want to have to deal with a post surgery dog.
I saw a segment on Good Morning America or one of those shows where they were talking about dogs ingesting foreign objects and having to have surgery. The vet said that the most frequent object that are extracted from dogs intestinal track is panties.
Of course our wishes are that Daisy will recover quickly and that she too will be back to normal real soon.
