I am so happy your dog is home. Thanks so much for posting.

It's a good reminder to be really careful what gets dropped, and also what is put into garbage cans. Our dog Lollipop had acute gastric distress from chewing up an almost empty deodorant dispenser that she found in the bathroom garbage can. We called the Emergency Vet's office and they said to rush her in, that she would need emergency treatment. Then we called Poison Control. They asked the weight of the dog (70 lbs) and for a list of ingredients. They said there was nothing toxic in the ingredients and that she would be fine. And she was.
