At the vet again...

[Joy]

Very quick thinking on your part and I'm very glad he's ok. I doubt that any of us are always vigilant - accidents happen. I hope you can relax a bit.

 

[snowbunny]

What a scare, well done for realising the potential danger and getting him looked at. Many people wouldn't have thought it would be an issue.

 

[MellowYellow]

Ugh what a horrid thing to happen, good job you for reacting so quickly!!

 

[Shaz82]

Blimey, good job you realised what had happened and got it out before any damage caused.
Hope he's ok now.

 

[edzbird]

Your quick action means no harm done. Don't dwell on it, I'm sure your OH has learned his lesson.

 

[Stacia]

A fright for you, but all is well. Labradors do pinch food, Rourke is a shocker, never had a dog like him before!

 

[Loraseal]

Well done for knowing what happened and getting Chewie to the vet on time.
Accidents do happen so don't feel bad.
Good to know Chewie is better.

 

[Emily]

Wow, how awful! Thank goodness you go him to the vet so quickly x

 

[Jen]

Glad Chewie is ok! What a fright but brilliant quick thinking!

I would have probably assumed Stanley had chewed it up with the chicken and adopted a wait and see I’ll know for future!

 

[Selina27]

Good to hear that Chewie is home safe and sound , very good quick action. These things happen so easily x

 

[Naya]

So glad Chewie is ok. They certainly are a worry. Hope he recovers quickly x

 

[MrChew]

He is doing well. A bit tired and has soft poos, but we think the latter is due to the vet feeding him Hills, which doesn't agree with his system at all. Now that he is on cooked food that is improving. The Hills poos smells so offensive too. Yuck.

Since we are both radiologists we have seen plenty of human perforations due to small, seemingly innocuous pointy objects so we knew when to be concerned I guess.

 

[M.F.]

Did you tell your vet to do the endoscopy, or was it your vet’s suggestion?

 

[MrChew]

Did you tell your vet to do the endoscopy, or was it your vet’s suggestion?

It was the vet's suggestion. We were kind of expecting it, but didn't suggest it.

 

[M.F.]

It was the vet's suggestion. We were kind of expecting it, but didn't suggest it.

I was just wondering given your expertise. And thinking what it’s like for the general population who don’t have any background and put all their trust in a vet.

 

[MrChew]

Our medical knowledge definitely makes it so much easier to navigate human and animal medicine. That said, we try not to tread on toes! The same for when I see my GP- I know she is an expert on children's health for example and knows a lot more than me.

 

[M.F.]

I was telling my husband about Chewie and the kebab incident. He said Chewie is very high sosatie!

That is the very opposite of our Chewie.
