Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

So my 5 month old puppy just ate a sock. We had no time to get it away from her or trade her for it. We aren't really sure what to do any advice?

take her to the vet. It can cause a blockage and cause some real problems.

Well we found a different option. I called the emergency vet and told her the situation and that Anna is 5 months old and 30 lbs. So for any future pet owners with this problem I was instructed to give her a tablespoon of peroxide every 15 minutes for an hour and if she does not throw up then it is time to go to the vet. Anna threw up with the first tablespoon after about 5 minutes, and be warned they will throw up everything. Crisis averted and Anna is back to her normal self.

So it's just peroxide like you get in the bottle, like the stuff you put on a cut to kill the bacteria?

It's great advice and will definatelly be noted
