Florence was seen through the TVES ER for excessive sneezing. After a procedure to remove a foreign item from her nose Florence needed a little extra love. She was very happy to be able to cuddle up in one of our new hands free dog carriers!

A 9 month old dog presented for not eating and some vomiting. On exam, the stomach was very hard and very distended. Radiographs were taken which showed a stomach full of abnormal material. On further questioning, there was gorilla glue in the house that the dog might have eaten. She was taken to surgery and a very large, hard glue ball was removed. She did great and was sent home.

A journal article (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33770163/) described 22 dogs who have done the same thing. Gorilla glue expands immensely so what appears to be a small ingestion can create a large problem. If this glue is in the house, it should be kept up high and out of reach. If ingested, veterinary care should be pursued right away.

Juniper, seen here with Licensed Vet Tech Selena, came to the TVES ER after her, and her brother Felix, got into Ibuprofen. Here Selena is administering Toxiban (activated charcoal) to help absorb the toxins in the NSAIDs before Juniper absorbs them herself. Juniper and Felix then stayed in TVES ICU for a few days on IV fluids and other gastroprotection medications. They had repeat bloodwork performed to confirm that any Ibuprofen they did ingest was not causing damage to their kidneys and liver. These mischievous pups were discharged home to their family and advised to stay away from medications not prescribed to them by a licensed veterinarian.

If you suspect your dog has gotten into NSAIDs contact your veterinarian immediately. While mostly safe for humans in dogs NSAIDs can cause liver, kidney and neurological damage. Always keep medications out of reach of pets, and call your veterinarian before giving OTC medications to your pets at home.
