I'm so worried. My gorgeous 9 week border terrier pup got hold of some open staples this morning (he must have got them from under chest of drawers). I turned my back on him for a few seconds and heard him crunching. When I looked I found staples all over the floor.
Took him to the get who has x-rayed him and found 8 staples in his tummy. He said he could operate or we could see if he passes them. He was so negative about surgery that we opted for him to pass them, however the vet seemed very negative about that too
Currently waiting to hear from his second x-Ray to see if the staples are moving through.
The whole family is in tears. I feel dreadful. He's been such an easy pup so far.
I need reassurance of anyone who who has experienced similar with their pup and had good outcomes.
