We are waiting to hear from the doctor's office. The tech said there were 3 for surgery and thought Bandit would be moved to the front of the line. The waiting is brutal. I miss my lil boy!!

Thanks everyone!

We got...Ok, I got antsy and asked Alan to call the vet for an update. Bandit is now in surgery and we will get a call when the doctor is finished operating.

Again, thanks for all the prayers and well wishes for our little boy.

The surgeon just called. Bandit is out of surgery and is doing well. In his intestine, they found a couple of twist ties, and some fabric. These puppies like to eat their toys, the furniture, anything they can get their mouths on. In Bandit's stomach, they found a sock, which was likely the source of the blockage. Bandit has barfed up socks before, so I am surprised that he had an issue with this one.

The hospital will be keeping him for a couple of days, he'll get an extra day of rest there. While I miss the little guy, don't want to bring him home too soon, as Harley-Belle will be all over him. He'll probably need to wear a cone-of-shame for a few days too.

In other, non-related news, my C8 budget just took an $8500 hit.

Glad to hear Bandit is on the mend.

After not having insurance on Mochi ( I could have bought a full dresser HD for what we spend on vet bills ) , both Levi and now Morgan have insurance.

Thumbs up Money well spent!
Been checking this thread, and hoping and praying for a good outcome...so sorry that the surgery was necessary but glad he is recuperating/on the mend.

They sure do worry the heck out of us, don't they?!?!

Hugs and well wishes to Mr. Bandit

Glad to hear surgery went well. Pets can be damn expensive can't they, but we never hesitate to pay those bills!

Wow, he eats everything laying around doesn't he? Glad they got all that out and he's on the mend. He'll be good as new shortly!

Bandit> C8!

I'm surprised to hear it was a cloth item that didn't pass....Stomach acids are so strong, I'd think the material would fall apart and break up into pieces....One of our Dobies Suni, used to jump up and grab the handi wipes from the kitchen sink....all over the backyard we'd find blue, red, yellow turds....Funny but scary too, luckily they passed thru and she had a very clean digestive tract!

Bandit will be fine and hopefully lose his appetite for stinky socks!

Just called the vet hospital and Bandit is up, alert and playing with his blanket. He is bright and cheerful, which is his normal self! Great news!

Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes, and of course, I will post updates as I get them.

I'm glad it was just twist ties and a sock and not something that could've done more damage like a staple. My husky has swallowed a couple socks...one she most passed but I had to pull it out.... C8's are ghey anyway
