When a dog has eaten something and you need to have it pass there's the egg and oatmeal method.I suspect this dog has had a wad of carpet backing stuck in it for a couple weeks. Partial blockage. runny poop with mucus and some blood now and then every two-three hours starting after ten P.M..
But it don't poop during the day!
Tried changing it's feeding schedule too.
Just found that I brought a wad of tractor grease in on the carpet. L.o.l.
I'd scrubbed my shoe in gritty snow to clean the mud off before coming in the house.
Ah well. Scrub , scrub.
Should I blame the dog for what's left?
The dogs intestine is all wrinkly and things get caught in the winkles the vet told us.
So a big heaping oatmeal will enlarge the wrinkles out, and then the dog will pass the object.
If a dog swallows something and it might cause a problem-a quick dose of Hydrogen Peroxide and it will upchuck real fast, if it doesn't repeat.
The Max swallowed a peach that was ripening on table, the pit is sharp and the vet said it could rip the inner lining of the intestine or get lodged in a wrinkle so to do this treatment.
Amazing reaction-foam-ran across the yard, and that was the end of the peach in the ditch.
