A dog from England accidentally swallowed a plastic cat toy and had a lifesaving procedure to remove the spring. Rosie is on the path to recovery — toy free.
"If that failed, she would have required surgery to remove the spring.""I knew instantly what it was when the vet called me to say a foreign body had been found in her stomach," she said. The object needed to be removed as quickly as possible, as the spring was plastic and could damage the dog's esophagus, Hogan said."If that failed, she would have required surgery to remove the spring.
Rosie was acting lethargic and had a high temperature upon arrival at the veterinary practice, said SWNS. "The challenge was that the tool designed to grip and remove the spring must fit through a very narrow channel within the endoscope and is, therefore, quite delicate," Hogan said. The team of workers at Blacks Vets worked slowly and carefully to remove the item, Hogan noted.
