yes I just took my 10 month old boxer puppy to the ve this morning 8/20/08 with a 103.8 temp and they found foreign objects in her stomach. a black string and a piece of metal. They have induced her to vomiting with berhum. Hoping she will be ok and no surgury. If you suspect your dog has swallowed anything besides food, especially long string, long metal objects, magnets, of any size, or batteries, you need to take your dog to the vet ASAP! Don't wait for a fever, that is a symptom of something wrong! You need to take them before their body is in trouble. The fever can be a signal of many things wrong, but having foreign matter inside your gut would cause it, definitly. The vet can X-ray and see what they have swallowed and then take the proper steps to try and help your dog in the best way, depending on the shape and size of the object swallowed. This is always best handled before the object gets into the intestines, once there, the risk to your dog increases horribly. You need to go to the VET as soon you become suspious, or, when you see them swallow the object.
Yes.
