This Adorable Pup Had Lost Her Appetite, Then The Vet Discovered The Reason Why

It’s important to “dog-proof” your home if you have pups in your care. Pups are naturally curious and will get into just about anything, even stuff you don’t want them to find.

When Tiki the black Labrador pup, 8 years old, began experiencing diarrhea and vomiting and stopped wanting to eat at all, her parents Sara and Sydney Weiss were beyond concerned, especially when they realized it was accompanied by a mass in her stomach. They rushed her to her vet, Dr. Ibrahim, but his prescriptions failed to help her.

Dr. Ibrahim decided to use an x-ray to scan for problems with Tiki, and what he found out left him and his surgical team in complete shock. Inside the pup’s stomach were 62 hair ties, eight pairs of underwear, a bandage, and four rubber bands! Surgery had to be conducted to remove the offending objects. Luckily, it was a success, and Tiki recovered well.
