Our poor Baby!

Poor George gave us quite a scare this week
he just started acting all goofy and we could not figure
out what was wrong
finally we stuck a flashlight in his
mouth and we found a stick stuck in his throat.
I didn't even know he had been chewing on it
he must have picked it up when he was outside.
so scary,
your kids can tell you how they feel
and communicate.
He has been getting the Royal treatment!!
Has any of your dogs ever done this?

    Poor baby! I'm glad you figured it out. We know someone who's dog got an infection in it's mouth and come to find out it was a big splinter from chewing on a stick and it got wedged in the gums and infected..ouch!

    never had a dog.
    par contre, i once had a fish bone stuck in my throat when i was a kid, and my godfather, i think, pulled it out, or something. or it melted? i didn't get no royal treatment neither.

    George looks like a Poodle I once had ... I'm glad to hear he's ok.

    Dogs ... they can drive you nuts because you love them as much as people. I'm looking at Noodle the Poodle as I type ... bloody dogs making us worry.

    (Mental Note: Find a tutu for Noodle.)

    Oh George!! Our German Shepherds have never done the stick-down-the-throat thing, but they did always carry sticks like a cigar, not an across-the-mouth normal doggie thing?? So it's small wonder, you stop your children from doing it. We did take a very strangely behaving puppy to the vet for an emergency suspected broken leg - he had broken a nail, no kidding, one tiny snip of the nail clippers & 85. ARGH!! Trust me, vets are paid to 'listen' to their patients, that is why they charge so much, love Posie

    OUCH!

    Hey I was thinking as I was rading my posts, I haven't heard from Heidi...well I don't know what I did THIS TIME...but I guess I had been messing around with my blog roll and I lost you.. I am so sorry. I was like'where is she" and then I felt horrible thinking you probably thought I ditched you... WEll I did not get rid of you intentionally.

    I gotta stop changing, and rearranging things when I am bored because I have a feeling I have lost others too.....

    Poor George, I'm glad he's better, you had the presence of mind to check his throat. He might have died! Chicken bones, all bones, in fact, are forbidden at our house. One of our little dogs almost choked to death on a piece of meat. Have a good day, kiss George for me. Diane

    Hi, Heidi - (you know in Uk in the 80s there was a TV sitcom called "Hi-de-hi!", set in a holiday camp - I always think of that when I think of you!) - my spotty cloth was vintage - about 1950s I should think - very soft material :) Hope George is Ok. Just off to the movies (oooh, George!) x
