| Odie ate an ear plug??? ( I think) Hi there, I have a 10 week old furbaby who I think ate an ear plug. I called animal 911 and they said to wait to see if the plug comes out or to make him vomit. I know that there is a way to do this but I am unsure of just how to do it. Is there anyone here who can help me please... I am so worried about Odie

| Hi there Thanks for the support.. Geez this little man is going to drive me nuts.. I love him to pieces but man can he ever get into mischief We have given him some bread and some liver treats which usually give him a good run for his money. So I expect that he will pass it soon enough.

| You are so lucky I was thinking that perhaps he isn't getting enough to eat if he is munching on weird stuff I am giving him a teaspoon of wellness puppy food 4 times a day so many be he isn't getting enough

| lol... OH no... i sure don't well it says on the Wellness homepage that if he is 3 lbs he should get 1.5 cups... so i'd say he should be getting at least 3/4 c... is he on the puppy formula??? HOw do you think he would do if you free fed him? Usually i'm not for that but when they are so tiny i think it is ok. Layla was free fed and did very well. I'm guessing he is not getting enough... 4 tsp a day is not a lot... try giving him more.. see if he will stop when he is full. |

| I didn't think that 4 tsps wasn't much because he is always munching on whatever I give him. I didn't want to over feed him either. His food is a wet food so leaving it out wouldn't be a great idea. He doesn't like the hard stuff yet..lol I am sure that once those teeth have come in and he is ready he will eat the hard stuff
