Question:
My friends dog just swallowed a metal spoon. Her dog just underwent ear surgery and that zapped their funds. Unsure what to expect. Will the dog begin to suffer from blocked intestines or is there a chance the spoon could lay in the stomach for years. Unsure what to do.

Answer:
The dog could DIE and needs to be rushed to an emergency facility!! NOW

Answer:
The dog needs to see a vet ASAP. Are you positive it swallowed it? A spoon is a strange item to get down their throat whole???? Sorry, just cannot picture it. Stranger things have happened, I'm sure.

An Xray will show one way or another. They can make arrangements to pay on time, but the dog can't wait.
