I noticed my dog chewing on something in the backyard yesterday afternoon. I went out there to discover he was eating a beer can. He had found an old one in part of the vegetable garden. A trip to the vet and X-rays show small pieces of aluminum in his stomach. Too small to be able to remove surgically. At the vet's recommendation we are feeding him canned pumpkin and bread and praying he will pass this without causing internal damage. Prayers appreciated for Cash. The next 3 days or so will be stressful. This guy is my buddy. Prayers appreciated.

Prayers for Cash Papa J. I know how one can get attached to a dog. They are family.

I had a mix that did that, ate all but the top and bottom. He passed the pieces over the next few days with no ill effects. Best of luck to Cash!

Thank you for those words of encouragement. If he lives I'm going to kill him.

Thank you for the prayers. I can't believe he ate a beer can. An old one, at that, so he wasn't after the taste of the beer. I feel so bad that I left it out there. It was behind some old tomato plants. I saw it when pulling up old plants and thought to myself that I needed to pick up the trash. Never dreamed he would eat it.
