Emergency Vet ASAP would be my suggestion. Good luck.

 

[Sherry]

can you look down her throat?

I would go to the vet. Too risky to take it out if it's too deep down.

Can't see anything. She is just sitting here now, swallowing, but not as much, and has vomited a couple of times. Better than it was, but still don't see anything in the vomit.

that's good if she is sitting up, if she's still swallowing she's trying to work it down.

 

[Sherry]

oh my, latex glove, there could be more in there.

Threw up the glove. It must have been dangling in her throat. Where the heck did that come from? It was about a half inch by 3 inch shred of glove. She's better now. Oh, my goodness, was I scared! The nearest emergency vet is an hour away.

Exhale, keep an eye on that pup, they will eat anything that can't get out of their way.

She's much more calm now. She had been kind of panicked at first and running away. I'm working on getting there too. Thank you all for trying to help us!!

That may be just a piece of the glove that she tore off. watch real close, which I'm sure you are, if she has any kind of distress, do the Heimlich there is instructions on here how to do that, on the home page.

Does she still have a stick in her or was it just the glove she swallowed? She's very very lucky.

Please read this article when you have a chance. I want to also note that pulling an object out could cause more damage.
