Like the subject says I have a dog who eats anything he can possibly get his jaws on and doesn't look too see what it is (and he has never missed a meal in his life) but it does make worming easy but I had a glove go missing and didn't think he got it but then his performance at his last start was far slower than his average which makes me think he may have he has eaten other things before that we have only known about when he throws them up just would like too know if billing him out might get it out quicker if it is there he is showing no signs of being uncomfortable but eating the glove is the kind of silly thing he would do

Was the glove thin rubber/plastic, material or leather?

Kris, a dose of paraffin oil may help, as this has worked in the past on dogs that have eaten socks, etc., and it makes it easier for the object to move through the GI tract.

It was a cotton one with the silicone grip and it was about a week ago I didn't think he actually ate it until his run on Monday he would have ate it Sunday and have been searching for it since but other than his last race he hasn't showed anything out of the ordinalry but he is usually pretty consistent not a world beater but usually I know what I'm going too get from him

Thanks Carole yeah the other thing I was referimg too was a baby sock that he put a silicone base on and strapped it on when he had stitches in his pad but that didn't pass he threw it up weeks later but he won a race in that time I didn't even know he got it u can't let anything hit the ground near him or it's gone
