Oh, Bob, you are a funny boy...I'm just glad this story had a happy ending. For some reason the upchuck solution never occurred to me for swallowing foreign objects. I just thought they would have to work their way through. DUH!

We averted a crises the other day. My husband was in the kitchen (where every dog knows anything that falls on the floor must be something to eat) when the rubber tip from the cane he was using (temporary foot injury) fell off. It was a split second later that Tucker had it in his mouth. And a half-a split second later that I grabbed it out of his mouth. If I had been one millisecond slower, I'm sure it would have been down the tubes. Tucker is not one to chew.

Bella girl, it is not to late to get Mom a new pair of earrings for Mother's Day....you silly girl.
