She has thrown up a couple of times since her surgery, but she's been on different meds and under anesthesia twice. They told me she might be nauseated, so I didn't really think much of it.

We're back to the vet tomorrow anyway. I'll talk to Dr. G and see what she thinks. Lottie is definitely acting as though she's feeling considerably better. But the thought of something being stuck in there worries me.

There were no tampons, so no strings to be concerned with. But the pads do have a plastic type bottom layer.

I'll keep you all posted. Lottie sends kisses to everyone thanking you for your concern. She is loved a lottie!

Glad to see an update on her. I came on specifically looking for one ;-). I sure hope everything has "come out" fine :yes:.. Paws crossed for her here!
 
... and that, ladies, is why we hid our bathroom trash in the cabinet and got a small trash can nearby with a lid and a pedal.

Oh, but my trash can has a lid and a pedal!!! Miss Lottie obviously figured out how it works! It now faces the corner so the pedal cannot be reached and the hinged part of the lid faces out. Of course, it no longer matters as the bathroom door will be closed unless the can is empty.

Meggie and Cooper never bother with trash.....live and learn!

you just never know what the new kid will do:wink2:
 
I would think if she's eating, no vomiting, she has passed everthing. BUT, I would also still be very concerned. Glad to hear she's going to the vet tomorrow, it will give you the opportunity to talk to them about.

Hope she's OK....
 
my trash can in the bathroom is on top of the counter.
i have 1 sink but a very long counter.

even with a lid and pedal, Gavin can get in.

Trash (and food) are his triggers....
 
My trash can is inside the cabinet, otherwise as pups they would do sheltie artwork, but wouldn't eat anything. The most fun they had was putting the end of the toilet paper in their mouth. Look mom I drug it through the hall and down the steps, and it didn't even break, I was so careful. Don't drag the Charmin!

I hope Lottie is doing better. Shelties are so much fun, and somedays scary.
 
As all, I certainly wish Lottie well.

So if we're gonna play gross out gastric foreign bodies here, I guess I might add this.
Generally when I remove foreign material from a dog's stomach we wrap it up in a plastic bag and show it to the owner, and they say 'Oh God - that's Suzie's little troll doll.' Or 'That's the rug from the hall.'
But sometimes when I pull out some chewed up rubbery material and hear the tech give out a little gasp, we have to wonder just how we are going to explain this one to the owner. Do we wrap this one up and 'show and tell' or just say ' I took out some stuff.'

Let's just say I'm referring to the kind of objects that are delivered in plain brown wrappers, without a return address. :wink2: - Dr. Mac

:lol: That is so funny.....I could only imagine how to handle that.

Well, I am pretty forward.

I would probably hand it to them and say, here you go!
