We got quite a scare last night… Kinston swallowed a polyester Running Room sock.  Whole.  Sounds funny at first, but is in fact quite dangerous, you don’t know where the sock can bunch up or clog.  And with him being still a young puppy, you don’t want to induce vomiting right away in case it doesn’t make it out and chokes him.

Sandy rushed to a vet hospital that was still open that evening and the vet said they would have to do an Xray to see where the sock was.  Turns out the sock was still in the stomach, and they would be able to anesthetize him and “pull” the sock up.  Kingston spent the night at the vet overnight and scheduled for the specialist first thing in the morning.  When they gave him the first dose of the anesthetic, it make Kingston vomit… lo & behold, the Running Room moisture-wicking sock came up!

Spent the rest of the day sort-of groggy, but in good shape!  We are thrilled that it worked out ok.
