I posted about this in the "what to do if your dog swallows a sharp object" thread in the health section yesterday, but I would just like to reiterate that I don't know WHAT would possess a dog, while snuggling on my lap, to suddenly decide that my earring looks appetizing. At least she was gentle when she plucked the earring off my ear and swallowed it.
She seems no worse for the wear, although I do wish she would find more appetizing things to eat. Here I am pouring money into expensive dog foods and fresh meats and veggies, carefully choosing treats for training, trying to put the vet-recommended 2 to 4 pounds onto her ... and all this time, it was earrings she craved -- earrings and cottonballs. Poor little starving creature being denied her favorite treats all this time!
I just don't understand my dog sometimes!  |
