Little Worried
« on: September 01, 2006, 02:19:40 am »
Hello all! I have not posted on here in a while.. but have enjoyed watching. I need everyones advice on what I should do!
On 8/20/06 we went rock crawling in the mountains, well we rolled a rock crawler, no big deal and the ice chest dumped over! Junior was pleased, there was a deli sandwhich, you know the kind with the deli toothpicks?? He ate the whole thing! I woke up Monday morning finding toothpicks around my house from him couphing them up. It has been two weeks now, and it is still in the back of my head. What if there is one lodged in him somewhere??? His dropping seem normal, a little softer, but no change.

I just need some advice, I am not sure if he is fine or if maybe he isn't because there are no signs, but what if in a couple weeks he is really sick!


P.S. I have attached some pictures of Junior doing his own rock crawling! He loved the mountains!!

Great photos. I am sure the toothpick is gone by now, but you could give you vet a quick call to ease your mind.

Love those pictures and that big handsome boy! I agree, if you feel like you need to call your vet, go right ahead. It won't hurt to ask!

I agree with everyone else - after this much time, you would most likely have seen more symptoms if there was a problem, but it might ease your fears to take him to the vet.

It might also help if you can remember how many toothpicks were on the sandwhich and how many he coughed up

I agree with everyone else; he's probably fine after this long, but a call to the vet couldn't hurt.

He's a cutie! I love the photos. :)

I'm sure he's fine!  The amount of wood, sticks, etc, my Newfs eat when we're in the mountains is amazing!  Many times when I clean up after them it is mostly wood/bits of pine, etc.  They are always full of energy, though, and it never seems to affect them.  I think they are part termite! ;)

Thank you to everyone! I really appreciate your advice. My mind is more at ease now. I tried to find out how many toothpicks there were but no one noticed.
