Removed #5 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 He screamed when the vet was examining him. (Vet seemed kind of rough). Then took him for X-rays. He wouldn't go so I had to carry him . Now just waiting for the X-rays to be done There seem to be times where they have to "dig" and trying to feel for something in a dogs stomach / intestines is one of those times. Hope the screaming was from agitation and disgust, not pain from something inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 No blockage!! Yay! They gave him some meds to help with inflammation of the intestine. The plastic might have irritated him but good news! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 He just has meds to protect the stomach and intestines if there is irritation. He can have small amts of water and 1/4 of his food. If he vomits that then we need to do an ultrasound. His diagnosis was gastritis Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carly Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 glad its no turned out to be too nasty, poor Yukon, sending Skye kisses xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chula Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Glad to hear that! I'm sure it did irritate his digestive system, probably even scraped up his esophagus. So happy there's no plastic on the xray! Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 He did say that the plastic would be hard to see on X-ray. Especially since it was so small and thin. He said that if he does continue to vomit he will need an ultrasound Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazz Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I hate when things like this happen. So far it sounds like good news. Give Yukon a belly rub or me, will you Jason? He could probably use one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
