Was it plastic or cardboard? Did he chew it first or just scoff it down? Either way, if it were my dog, I'd take him to the vet for a feel-up and possibly an xray. If it gets caught up somewhere in his system, you could have a very sick puppy on your hands.

thanks for your reply, it was wood and he just scoffed it straight down without chewing it...he is fine at the minute eating, playing and pooing as normal.

Oy! Puppies! Such a worry when they're being naughty!

Please let us know what the vet finds. A wooden stick isn't likely to dissolve and the length of it may cause problems when Puppy tries to pass it. that everything is okay!

And welcome to the board, Benji07. When you get a chance, we'd love to see pictures of your little darling so if you have any to post, please do!

Go down to the bottom of the page where you post and click on Manage Attachments. From there you can browse for the picture you want to post. Notice that the board only takes 100 whatsits. You can reduce the size using your photo software, under Format.

I do see a darling puppy pic in your profile, though. Is that Benji? He's a doll!

Are you trying to post a file from your computer or a link to a photo-sharing site on the web?

What a sweetheart! I'm glad you finally figured it out! Now we'll expect lots more pictures, of course. We're pretty demanding, aren't we?

How is he doing? Any consequences from the lollipop stick?

hes such a cutie. i thinnk you'll be fine cutting him down to two meals in a day in a little while i had no trouble with that with enzo, i feed him a cup of dry food (sometimes with olive oil on it, good for dry skin) and at supper i feed him about half a cup of dry food and 1/3 a can of wet food ( the big cans) but at meals he looks like he could always eat more, but i know he would eat untill he was sick, plus he gets a few treats throughout the day to help tide him over. hope all goes well with the lollypop stick.

WoooHooooo! That's really great news! One less thing to worry about! I'll bet Pup is relieved, too!

I'm glad it all came out in the end...so to speak.

Sorry! Couldn't resist!
