i got back from the vet about 1h ago .
had to put bruce in the tub the second we got home ...lil man was kinda smelly lol ..had to drive withthe window down too hahaha ... but hey he is back !
when they brought him into the exam room to me he was sooooo excited and wiggled all over the place ,pounced around and hit his head under the exam table hahahaha...the nurse and i had to laough pretty hard at that sight... from the time i droped him off till now he made a 180*.
the bil was pretty harsh but i was kinda prepared ...the estimate said $860 and i made a deposit of $430 . its all good now cause he is feeling better .
they send us on our way with antibiotics and a GI health pack (presciptive food for a sensitive tummy and culture powder to put in his food); and a promise to call once something comes out of his rear ( the nurse said it might be something interesting lol )
shure enough the second we leave the vet , bruce drages me around the corner of the building -i assumed to pee since he was on an iv for 30h- he positioned himself -short fountain - and then plop a thick , green piece of rubber !!!!!!!!
needless to say i was just as confused as the nurses when i presented them the green "object".... while bruce pranced very satisfied with himself alongside.
drove home - with windows down - bruce next to me and the green thing in a ziplock bag on thefloor lol
bruce and jackie had a crazy happy "hello" - bruce went straight to his favorite ball and celebrated his homecoming with the zoomies. THEN A MUCH NEEDED BATH
he also ate 1/2 can of the food and right now both are zooming around , playing like crazy and bruce is trying to hump jackie while she is running away lol
im getting ready to pour myself to sleep - much needed sleep !
huggs and sloppy kisses

nah, looks more like a squeaky frog toy..
don't suppose you'd be willing to wash it off and take a pic outside the bag? Maybe someone would be able to identify exactly what toy it is. It would drive me crazy trying to figure out where the heck he got it. I'd also want to make sure it's all there and isn't missing more parts you should be watching for.
Don't you wish he could talk!

I was wandering the same thing Julia..
how did they not see it??
with a barium and an xray..
should have caught it you would think
glad he is better though
So they never saw the green rubber in his stomach?
Even with the barium and xrays?!
I'm glad he's feeling better and it passed... but I'm worried they didn't see that!!!
Are you still getting the two other puppies? LOL... Your stress load is going to quadruple.
So glad he's OK!!!!

yucky
do you have any idea what it came from??? I am so happy that things turned out good for Bruce and no surgery needed,
YAY!!!
I have been checking in all weekend, following along to see how Bruce was doing. So glad he is home and all better!
Great news Jenny ! (eom)
I am so relieved and happy that...
baby Bruce is well. I am glad he didn't require surgery.
So glad he passed the offending "green monster"...
and now you will have to go on a "treasure hunt" to see if you can find out where it came from and if there are any other pieces of this thing still around.
