I have reason to think that Wonder ate a paper towel...what do I do? Induce vomiting, watch and let it pass? Guuuuh!

 | Paper towels are considered very yummy in my house right behind used kleenex's ;-)
I would not worry about it much - one paper towel is not a big deal. Just make sure that it passes.

| I will.  I was just reading the thread from back in february about all names of things being pulled out of doberbutts. It made me feel a little better. What a scary reminder to keep peroxide in the house, geez!

If it happened VERY recently you could give Wonder three or four tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide (the 3% stuff you buy off the shelf of any drug store)--that will usually cause them to vomit up whatever it was they ate.
However--I'm not sure in the case of a single paper towel that I'd bother. Considering the things that various of my puppies have eaten in the past a single paper towel has always just gone through them along with whatever they had for breakfast or dinner.
But if it happened two or three hours ago, don't even bother--it's already out of the stomach. | |

| I had a St. Bernard that ate a bird once. She didn't chew it up it was a WHOLE bird. She decided to toss it up on the living room floor to show me. I was not pleased. Anways, I wouldn't worry to much but like the others said call the vet to make sure and keep an eye on him | |
