Help ASAP please! (Cita) Possible emergency?

    So glad Rascal is much better--,I,too, thought bully sticks were digestable. It's a good thing you were home when this happened.

     He's still clearly not feeling 100%, but I'm hoping it's more of a "ugh my tummy is really full and heavy" kind of upset. I figured out how to upload the X-Rays they took! I of course have no idea what I'm looking at, but I thought it was interesting. I'm going to call my regular vet tomorrow and see what they say - I'll probably end up bringing him in later this week.

    Anyone know off hand how soon I should be expecting the thing to pass, if it's going to? He pooped normally this afternoon, so that was exciting!

    Here are the X-Rays:

    I have never seen x-rays of a dog before.  That's pretty neat.  I have no clue what I am looking for but it's still interesting.  It may take another day or so before the stick makes it's grand reappearance!  Glad Rascal is doing so good!

    Look at that, beautiful inside and out! Glad to hear the little Rascal is going to be better. This too shall pass.

    Gosh, that must have been scary. I've had dogs swallow weird things before too, so I know how you feel- not fun!

     Hope Rascal feels better soon.

    Poor Rascal - hope his tummy is all better soon.  I'm SO glad this ended up not being an emergency.

    The xrays are neat !  thanks for posting them.   I'm glad I'm not a doc tho --- I don't see a piece of bully stick in them LOL

     I can't see anything either, where is it supposed to be?  Huh?

    I hope that things go well with Rascal now!

    I don't see it either! But I find the X-rays fascinating. All those tiny bones and organs, so neatly laid out! How anybody could be so disrespectful of that miracle as to be violent towards it is just beyond me.

    Thanks for all the kind words, I'll give updates as they come :)
