Puppy Swallows 13" Knife

The story is here.

Quote:

Jane Scarola's veterinarian thought the X-ray was a joke. He's seen strange items get into the stomachs of dogs before, things like kebab skewers and small utensils. But a 13-inch serrated knife that somehow was swallowed by a 6-month-old puppy?

This dog's a cut above the rest...

You must spread some Mojo around before giving it to Gemini Cricket again.

Poor Elsie the puppy!

THANK GOD she is okay! Perhaps she needed the knife to open the little barrell of Brandy she carries around her neck for those icy snow rescues?

I'm off in just a few minutes to take my sweet, precious Lab to the Vet's to view her X-Rays! (She has a bad lower back.

) I certainly hope any kind of blade doesn't show up! How scary is that??

You don't even want to know what I've found in the cat box...

Oh, yes I do! You have me intrigued! Please share your Tales from The Deep Sand: Treasures Of The Litter Box.

Whenever I scooped for my Mom's furry little dumplings (they are so cute!

), the only artifacts I unearthed in their box of Johnny Cat were of the little log nature. If only they had been diamond-encrusted or leafed in gold..

I DO hope all of your cute & cuddly kitties were okay and it was nothing harmful! Such sweet babies!

During the holidays, the kitties at my mom's house always got into the festivities by consuming tinsel from the tree. Added a nice festive touch to the litter box.

Tinsel!! Very "festive", indeed! Heehee!

This makes me want to celebrate Christmas at Cheź Motorboat Cruiser! But only if you let me string up little twinkling lights around the litter box.

Maybe the dog thought he found a revolutionary new way to treat worms.

Poor puppy! I can't imagine finding something like that. Gah. I wonder *why* she swallowed the whole knife... Weird.

Perhaps she wants a circus career.

See, my dogs would have licked the knife and cut their tongues instead of swallowing it whole.
