I cooked up some bacon tonight, and then soaked up the grease with 4 of the 1/2 sheets of paper towels. While I was on the phone, Ruger ate all 4 sheets!

I gave him a shot of hydrogen peroxide....only the slimy stuff came out. Waited 10 or so minutes and gave him another shot. Same results. Anyone else have their hoover do this? Should I worry? (dumb question....I will worry)

I guess this will be a sleepless night for me.

That's gonna be an interesting poop..If you have any Olive oil give a BIG dose of it in his bowl NOW to make sure the paper towel comes out without binding him up But you'll still worry until it comes out...Gawd, these boys are SO...SO!!!

 

[dobekiss]

PS. That was smart trying to get him to barf 'em up

I wish I had a dollar for every paper towel one of my dogs has eaten over the years....

I think your dog is likely to have a good case of the runs from the bacon grease, but that would be all I'd anticipate happening.

Paper towels and toilet paper--Yumm! say mine.

I try to reassure myself that it is just a bit of roughage.

Anyway, they've never looked back after a snack like this. I would guess your guy will do just fine.

 

[doberdeer]

You all sure make me feel better about my little guy. His regular diet includes sardines mixed with him morning meal, so I guess he should be quite oiled up. The addition of the bacon grease I hope will just shoot the paper towels out.

Still will be a restless night. This will be the last time I use paper towels for the last of the grease!

I think it's better for the dog to eat an occasional paper towel than to give him fatty meat that hasn't had as much grease as possible drained off.

Dober-Hoovers strike again...& again..LOL, god love those sniffers ;p

:roflmao: So true!! Ruffage with flavour

yea my dog has eaten paper towels...four is alot but should be fine
what to watch out for is the wrappers and liner in the meat packaging
Sparky tries to get ahold of that --that has plastic

 

[doberdeer]

He seems normal this morning. First poop of the day way normal too. No paper products included. He either chews very well or more to come later in the day. Hungry too! I think he will just get TOTW kibble though.

Think some dobies mush have cast iron stomaches! My boy, through his life has consumed many things that I thought would do him some serious harm!

A whole cooked chicken, 3 mobile phones (not all at the same time) A whole deep baked lemon meringue Pie (Hubby got the initial blame) A container of Chicken Tika Vindaloo (And the container) He swallowed his choker chain, and it came back through in one piece, Kitchen Table Leg, Mother in laws carpet and part of her wall, and tonns of horse poop!!!

At 13 1/2 he hasn't done bad!

I feel much, much better now! If there was a prize for the most oddities consumed, the prize goes to you and your guy. Not sure if congratulations are in order though..

I don't think you need to run to the vet or anything, just probably keep a close eye on him and give him a bland diet for 48hrs (cooked rice, poached chicken, green beans/canned pumpkin). My dog recently got into the trash and ate a load of tin foil that I had grilled fish in. That obviously warranted a trip to the vet's for radiographs. It did pass, and there was a very interesting pile o poo the following day. I had another dog that ate a paper plate and passed it fine.

All of mine have had a tissue fetish...the snottier the better

 

[melbrod]

A friend of mine's dobe ate a full bowl of foil-wrapped Christmas Hersey's Kisses once--no effect from the chocolate, thank goodness, nor from the foil wrappers. Just a whole lot of red and green sparkles in the next day's poop.
