Prayers for cyber's Jack please? UPDATE #23

**cyber-sibes** · 06-19-2008, 09:13 PM

It's been 10 hours.

10 PM poop check - yup, got one delivery. Brought it in, smooshed it around without the benefit of a stink-proof bag (Well duh, Phred, I should have read my e-mail before doing a yard check.

)

I recognize a few chunky items from last night's dinner - baked potato skin.... a couple chewed up carrot snacks - hmm, looks like corn in there, too, but I don't see any "cob".

Maybe he chewed it up REAL good, and maybe it just hasnt' passed yet. Will keep ya posted.

First thing that came to mind on reading this was OUCH!!! That's gonna hurt coming out!!!

Prayers that he munched it up good and all will come out well.

That's kind of a NASTEE thought!

Oh Jack you silly boy!

Those boys, I tell you they will eat anything. Bon ate a small plastic bag...took about 4 days to pass!

Hopefully he chewed it up good enough. The though of having to poop a corn cob sound a little painful. Hope it all come out alright.

Keep us updated.

You got laughing on that one, Anna! Doesn't it, though?

Good news - after cramming him full of roughage and flax seed, we got results late last night & this morning. (Lots of results, poor guy) It appears he must have chewed it into small marble-sized pieces. Hoping there's no big hunks stuck. As they say, "This too shall pass"

I feel so much better, as does Jack, I hope.

yipes-
Keegan's done this before but chewed it into small enough pieces that I didn't even THINK of a blockage. And everything came out in the end!
fingers crossed for Jack and the poop patrol!

Oh Pat, I'm SO happy to hear that things are movin' right along for Jack!
Keep 'em comin' Puppy Head!

Are you doing a Forensic Reconstruction of the Khorn Khob?

How many "marble-sized pieces" does it take to make one Cob?

Mmmmmm, let me think.....................

NAH

(But I did do a reconstruction last year when Sherman ate his plastic food scoop.* That was interesting.

)

Sat. update: Lots more "deposits" last night - still all reasonably swallowable pieces.

*PS - I use a metal food scoop now.

I'd imagine reconstructing a Khorn Khob from Byte-sized pieces would be
"interesting", too.

Are you going to be using metal Khorn Khobs, in the future?

Oh, Jack-A-roo. If you have a taste for corn (or the cob) in future, please let hu-mom know so she can get it ready for you

My dalmatian Cassie (14 years old) would eat everything....she has been called a billy goat on more than one occasion....I remember coming in from school, letting her outside, coming back in and finding faint bloody pawprints on the kitchen floor...well, the ding dong had jumped up and grabbed a wooden handled knife off of the kitchen counter, took it to her bed, held the KNIFE BLADE between her paws so she could chew the wooden handle off.....Her favorite things were my son's baby socks...we never knew when she stole them and ate them, but we would find them pooped out all over the backyard! She has always and still is a paper fiend! Loves to snitch any kind of paper and eat it...but she is 14 years old today, so I guess we have been very lucky, she never got an obstruction or something! Silly dog.....

Just catching up on this news. What a silly boy. As I was reading, I kept hoping he chewed a LOT.

No, Jack is NOT feeling better! He WAS getting all sorts of goodies from mom --

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?"

-- and now just as suddenly all that has stopped. He must be trying to think what he did to get so much attention and so many goodies! I just hope he does NOT figure it out and repeat this!

Prayers that he will be fine after this wee adventure.
