With harvest upon us a friendly reminder that your pet may ingest corn cobs! Friday we had two foreign body surgeries and both dogs had ingested corn cobs. A foreign body surgery is performed when a pet has consumed an object and it becomes stuck in the stomach or intestinal tract. Keep a close eye on your pets while outdoors! Signs of a foreign body can be vomiting, diarrhea, or decreased appetite.
Also, remember that if you are having corn on the cob with a meal to ensure your pets cannot get to those either.
