Guest Liz_in_PA Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Last night, our walk was a 4 bagger, with the last two being squirts. It's almost 3 pm and he's eaten nothing all day except grass and a pepcid. There are mornings where he doesn't eat much but he usually catches up after lunch. We just went for a walk and what came out was totally liquid (dark brown) and a deflated balloon. Not what I usually feed him. (Oh ick, now I'm wondering if it was a condom that I was picking up ) Anyway, could that be the reason for the nasty tummy? He's still not looking at his dish. Should this be a rice or oatmeal evening? Normally, it's a drumstick (right only) and some Taste of the Wild. oh, I'm going to wash my hands for the third time.

Guest sheila Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 If it was a condom it could have been treated with a spermicide. I did some checking just now and I read one thing on a health message board from a woman who said the spermicide caused her problems with her taste buds and everything she ate tasted horrible for days afterward.

greyhoundlov Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I think I would call the vet tomorrow just in case that balloon "stops up the works."

Anne Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Was the balloon or condom whole or just a piece of the condom or balloon? If the entire thing didn't pass, I would be concerned about any part of it left behind that could be causing a full or partial blockage. Hope it all comes out ok.

Guest Liz_in_PA Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I think I would call the vet tomorrow just in case that balloon "stops up the works." Could it be a problem if it has come out? the assumption is there's only one of whatever. It really could be a condom if he's been dumpster diving in the bathroom. How long could something like that hang out in his body? Could he have eaten it 1 1/2 weeks ago and it's finally making it's way out? He's had some rice with chicken broth. But he's not really interested. I gave him another pepcid as he's stinky. we were finally getting pretty solid poops, darnit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
