Should I Be Worried About Where The Other Latex Glove Is?

[BittyMooPeeb]

I sometimes buy a roast chicken for the dogs. I don latex gloves, take the flesh off the chicken then put the latex gloves, carcass and foil bag in a plastic bag, tie the end and put it in the laundry to take out to the rubbish. Somehow one of these got overlooked and sat under a box on the back porch for over a month. Yesterday I came home to find three dogs covered in vile putrefied liquid chicken . Housemate had already cleaned up the chicken mess from the porch.

Today, Peebs started to vomit and I was worried that a chicken bone was causing him trouble, but up came ..... a half rotted latex glove . Should I be worried about where the other glove is? Or (if it has been injested) will it come out either end without problems. Any of the three could have eaten it .

Keep an eye on the dogs for the next few days. Make sure that they are managing to go to the toilet without problems and are happy. If they start to have toileting problems, seem off colour or start to bloat take them to the vets straight away.

Giving them all a can or two of sardines might be an idea to help flush the glove out if they have eaten it.

If it has been eaten it should come out in a day or so without any problems - had a similar but grosser issue with my dog - if you dont see it come out either end I agree - vets.

Thanks for suggestions.

They've had sardines, and no glove has appeared. They are all well and happy though, so I assume the other one wasnt eaten

I can't believe it sat there for a month before they managed to get it???

It must have stunk :laugh:
