There are dangerous moments when you keep a puppy. It was when the foreign substance was swallowed.
The danger of foreign materials could be worse than expected. Be especially careful about small toys and seeds.

Dogs give plenty of snacks and rice, but they eat anything at leisure. I eat plastic, hair cord, and toy without question.
I don't eat these foreign substances because I'm hungry. There is a strong obsession to eat, and some swallow it out of curiosity.

When you swallow a foreign substance, most things usually come to the bowels or vomit. However, sharp chicken bones and stockings that can get stuck in the middle are dangerous.
Shortening can cause bleeding in the stomach or intestines, and getting caught can cause intestinal obstruction. When intestinal obstruction occurs, you can not eat, or you have diarrhea.
Since it is also accompanied by vomiting and painful, you should watch carefully after swallowing foreign substances.

What should I do if I swallow a foreign substance?

In case of dangerous water condition, you should take it to the hospital immediately. If you arrive at the hospital within an hour of swallowing, you can cause vomiting.
However, if the size isn't right to throw up or after a long time, you should think about something else. Talk to your veterinarian when causing vomiting.
This is because something worse can occur during vomiting, such as a foreign substance being caught in the throat.

The second way is to have an abdominal operation. If the stomach is left in the stomach, the stomach needs to be operated on, and if the intestinal obstruction is processed, the small intestine must be cut and attached.

The third is to remove foreign substances using the endoscope. However, it is only possible in a well equipped hospital, and may not be able to do so depending on the type of foreign object the child has swallowed.
The fourth is to try to discharge using a defecator. It is recommended to try this when there is a prospect that swallowed foreign substances will be able to come back to the bowels.

The only way to do this is to always keep an eye on the dog and to give it a chance not to swallow any foreign substances. Bear in mind that dogs tend to keep doing what they like, so you shouldn't let it go at all.

Sort:  

Puppies are sometimes rejected by their mother if they are born by cesarean and cleaned up before being given back to her.

That's right. If the mother refuses, the babies can't help it.
