If your dog develops a gut blockage, it’s likely that they will need an emergency operation. One of the first symptoms of a gut blockage is often vomiting. Contact your vet immediately if you think your dog has eaten something that they shouldn’t have. Never wait to see if a problem develops - your dog could become very ill, or even die without treatment. If you manage to get your dog to your vet very quickly after they have swallowed something that they shouldn’t have, they may be able to give them an injection to make them sick. Your dog may need to stay in the veterinary hospital for a few days while they recover.
