He may only be ¼ lab, but BlackJack will still eat anything!
And this time,unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be able to get rid of it on his own :-(
He ate slowly this morning — which never happens — and then got sick almost immediately after, which is never a good sign.
We've given him two doses of an ipecac-type solution, which did make him throw up more, but no luck as yet with whatever is blocking his stomach.
We'll call the vet in the next couple of hours if he hasn't been able to take care of it, & go get him x-rayed to see what's in there.
The first time it ever happened, it was a fur covered cat toy mouse, but he was a much smaller puppy then. It's happened at least one other time, & that turned out to be a piece of a bone that he & Rudy had been working on.
I just hate to see him so miserable... .
