This bloody dog will be the death of me

[captainPugwashh]

I love him to bits but fuck me hes outdone himself this afternoon

Went out to pub and had a lovely time. Came home to him bashing into thing and staggering about with a nice pile of sick in the middle of the only rug we have (why do they always do that) quickly rush him to the vet who asks what he ate. He ate bread dough and vommed it all back up. The yeast was fermenting in his stomach and he was effectively drunk.

They could feel something in his tummy so he was sedated and x rayed. He had coins in his intestine and a Lego action man. So he's had emergency surgery today and has cost me &
£1600. He'd eaten 27p in coins fuck knows how or when!

How old is the dog you ask? 17 years old no shits given.

He also chewed off the vets shoe lace when he was brought back to me as the vet was telling me what he had removed from his stomach. He didn't swallow that thank God.

Is he a Labrador?

That’s just what I was thinking

He's a corgi x Labrador so Labrador size with corgi legs 🤣

Sorry OP but your post has made me chuckle. Your dog sounds a real character, especially for such advanced years.

We've been laughing about this evening. You couldn't make it up. I thought they got better as they aged!!

I'm afraid I'm laughing too!
He's adorable.

Please post a picture of him.

I'm a vet, and this time of year we have seen so many cases of foreign body ingestion! It's par for the course, I'm afraid!! I hope he is OK now!

Aww bless him lol

Here he is

He sounds like a legend albeit an expensive one. We had a Jack Russell who kept up the bad behaviour for the vast majority of his 15 years. He wasn't going down quietly.

Another giggler here at your dogs antics. Funny. 🤣 £1600 a few days before Christmas ouch - good job you love him! 🤪 🐕 🍺

Absolutely gorgeous and clearly you must not be talking about this handsome dog? 😂

To try and find a positive - it’s only REALLY cost you £1599.73 😁

Awww look what a Sweetie. He's done well to reach all these things 🤣

He’s lovely. Watch him around the Christmas chocolates if he’s prone to eat anything and everything. Had a dog when I was a child who stole them off the tree, luckily he was ok.

@TheDogsMother I think the vet knocked the dough off the side as the bowl was broken and I suspect the other things were snaffled on a walk he had with a dog walker as I asked her to use a muzzle on him and she said he didn't need the muzzle because he was so friendly and I said it's not for aggression it's because he's a bin on legs and eats everything not nailed down.

Does Simon care? No he does not

What's the weirdest thing you've removed from a dog?

🤣🤣 sorry to laugh but it is funny. Simon is definitely channeling his Labrador side.

Our dog managed to snaffle something which resulted in a huge vet’s bill a few weeks before Christmas. We threatened to fatten said dog up for Christmas if the insurance didn’t pay out!

Sending solidarity towards owners of dogs who snaffle contraband! I thought they were going to say that I just have to look out for things in his poop but they couldn't tell what some of coins were as they could have been button batteries so we couldn't take a risk. Could see the 20p was a 20 p though 🤣

😂 that face though! He really gives 0 Fucks! We recently adopted a 4yo Labrador and while she's very well behaved at home (except for occasional stealing the kids snacks if they let their guards down) she's learnt how to open my parents fridge and has taught their staffy how to do so too.

True!

I've removed tennis balls that theyve swallowed whole! Knickers, a j- cloth ( that had unravelled and stuck at several places!) Baby's dummies also common, as are corn cobs!! I did hear of a dog that swallowed a carving knife (not my case , but documented!),Stones common too!
Love your pics, I am a corgi mum, got converted after accidentally adopting one. They are a pretty special dog ♥️

This daft bugger ate a small box of raisins, had to induce vomiting.
