specialmama Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 now we're waiting to see what happens! If she poops it out or if it makes her bounce when we drop her... here's hoping we don't incur thousands of dollars in vet bills if it melds to her intestines like it melded to our heating grill...

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 http://www.ehow.com/facts_5808820_silly-putty-toxic-dogs_.html This says that it is not toxic to dogs but could possibly block her intestines. It says nothing about melding or bouncing. . .:D I hope she poops it out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialmama Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) I knew I should have used a different word LOL, sorry Jean... where I'm from we often used the word meld to mean melt/weld so to sort of melt but like cement into her intestines. The blocking is what I'm worried about. Thank you for the link, I am off to check it out. ETA: Okay, I read it, and wow, it could be months? ARRRGGHHH! I really, really want a quick verdict here, I don't want to be watching her output for months! ACK! *breath* Edited January 4, 2011 by specialmama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saille Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'd call the vet and ask about purchasing a laxative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialmama Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'd call the vet and ask about purchasing a laxative. hmmm... I may just do that. You know, I was thinking as I was reading your response that I probably shouldn't have let her eat those 3 ice-cubes this morning. It's probably best for the silly putty to stay all warm and squishy, right? :confused: Seems common sense and yet here I gave both dogs their frozen morning treat... :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'm not sure. If it's cold it might go right through her. Call the vet. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormy weather Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'd call the vet and ask what to give to help thing pass through a bit more quickly,I don't think I could stand to wait a month. I have a Great Dane who eats children's socks:glare: When I am aware of the problem, the vet told me to give her vegtable oil to help move things on through. Otherwise things seem to work themselves out without my help, it just takes a bit longer. :ack2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
