Oncle Boris, why don't you go **** yourself?

Darwinism entitles me to find reproductive partners.

Not necessarily. You seem destined to be on the losing end of sexual selection.

I suspect it might be even more your case, given your kind of partners.

[Boris Godunov]

But I've been propositioned by the fair sex enough to know I can always exercise the option.

I give it to you that your 'kind' has shown more interest in me than the 'fair' one. So well, you win, fakeboris.

I remember this thread being something about batteries and dogs . . . . . . . .??

Space05us, even though you are right to be concerned about the pupper being calmer (possible affect of poison) don't forget the other possibility. He has this large uncomfortable lump moving through his insides, and is totally uninterested in being rambunctious until it passes. Fortunately metal is harder than teeth. If he did manage to chew up the metal casing (sharp edges), it could do mechanical damage to his intestines, causing bleeding, etc.

Your biggest concern should be if he DOESN'T pass it. Then it will have to come out, in not too long a time the acidity in his stomach would cause it to start leaking and that might very well kill him, though I am no expert. So watch his crap (literally), and make certain he passes it.

You're fakeboris and always will be.

Lately, I have had the same problem. Its girls I want to attract.

And sorry OB, but you must submit to Boris' very large post-count.

how is the dog, I am assuming he's okay

yeah he seems fine. still acting calmer than normal. I wonder if he's just moping around 'cause he feels dumb or if his tongue/throat hurts.

he didnt swallow it, just chewed on it a bit.

[Solver]

If he didn't swallow it... it's highly unlikely that any acid or toxic stuff got into his stomach. Probably just some metal dust and such crap, but that shouldn't be anything worrying. If he's acting calm somewhat, that might be either because of him realising he did a dumb thing , or having some stomachache that should, though, cease soon.

[Mr. Harley]

Sorry, had a puppy that ALWAYS swallowed what he chewed, if he could conceivably cram it down his throat. Stupid dog. I agree with Solver. He might have gotten one or two pieces of metal, they will typically pass, maybe some bleeding and upset, but probably nothing fatal. That's worse case. Or he may have gotten chemicals on his tongue, and is sitting there tasting rotten and feeling sorry for himself.
