Just looking in, in hope for the biggie - oh, please not a James Herriott!

Still no sign - worrying, but all we can do is watch and hope!

Well, I have some news but it isn't very pleasant, so for anyone who is eating their lunch don't read on!!

OH greeted me last night when I got home telling me that Tai had passed a 2 foot long poo in the garden with something inside it, but he was too squeamish to look. As it was pitch dark, I said I would get up in the morning as soon as it was light and go see.

It was indeed about 2 foot long - the exact width of a colon, and the faecal matter was clearly encasing something inside. I poked it with a stick and it looked to be a yellow duster! What on earth, thought I, was Tai doing eating a duster! I poked a bit more, and then suddenly realised that it was a pair of my knickers elongated diagonally so that it was stretched out to 2 feet in length. They were tightly wrapped up inside the faecal matter, and bright yellow because of the stomach bile. When I unrolled the knickers, inside the "sausage" was what looked like bits of semi-digested plastic!

I think we are getting there - I wonder what else is inside this dog!

How efficient he is - even down to 'wrapping' the plastic in your knickers

You won't be recycling that pair then Nikki????

OMG, it's almost as if, it was pure fate, that he ate the pants, to wrap the plastic up in them, before sending them on through the system! How clever is that! The question is.....did Tai know this, or was it down to fate alone??!!

Either way, I'm just glad to hear some if not all of that horrid plastic could be out now. Let's hope so anyway.

That sounds like positive news, lets hope that that is the worst of it.

I think there's more, judging by the farts!!

H, I was seriously thinking actually of recycling the knicks ... they are the most delightful shade of yellow!! However, to my annoyance the elastic has gone in them, so very reluctantly I have had to bin them!!

Thanx TW for your positive thoughts!!

Oh that is soooooo remniscent of my selkie! I thought she was turining insode out once when something long and red came out the other end!.. Turned out to be a red football sock! :P ... Nows a good time for some bio yoghurt if he'll take it... helps replace the good bacteria and produce the mucus he'll need to pass anything else that may be lodged within :/

I am agog wondering what the next 'package' will be neatly wrapped in

Right. Now for some more serious talking to whoever it is who listens to my prayers at night. You really do not want to know what I said last night but it might make you laugh when I talk about Nikki's Tai and then say Oh, Nikkie is Gnasher with a G. Just to make sure whoever might be listening knows who I am talking about.

What it boils down to is a polite request that Tai poos out that plastic without hurting himself, so we can all stop worrying. Oh, and I was very polite about the fact that he had eaten your nikkies, Nikki...
