My dog swallowed pieces of a turkey loaf pan? General Dog Discussions
Yesterday night my puppy tore up half of a turkey load pan. He is a pit/rot mix about 75lbs. I found a bunch of little pieces but it did not look like the whole pan was there. I took him to the vet this morning and they gave him antibiotics, steroids, and a anti inflammatory. He seems really sleepy now, not sure if its because of the meds. He is just acting a little different. One thing he did and it was only for a few seconds, he went threw the motions like he had to poop, it was rapid and nothing came out but it is worrying me. The vet said it is most likely throat irritation because he was coughing and hacking a lot but I'm more afraid of the pieces tearing his insides. I asked about it and she didn't seemed too concerned. She said it he was not better in a week to come in for x-rays. I live about 40 mins from a 24 hour vet. I would drive like crazy but its still far. Could I just be worrying too much?
