Gorilla Glue

Now I know this sounds like an odd topic but we all know that some dogs will eat or chew on ANYTHING. Those of you who have dogs know if you have one of these. In my profession I have seen alot of things that we have had to surgically remove from dogs belly's or intestines. One dog ate a baby doll and when we emptied the stomach contents it looked like a scene from jaws. There were little hands sticking out and pieces of the dolls arm. One dog ate a teddy bear and the arm had become lodged in the intestines creating a blockage and they had to have emergency surgery.
 All of that leads to this. A dog will and usually does chew on anything and this particular product is a VERY bad problem. Those of you familiar with this product know the attribute of this glue is that it expands greatly when it dries. It will do this in the stomach also. I have seen wads of glue removed from the stomach of a dog that was about the size of a cantaloupe.
The seriousness of this, is that it becomes a blockage issue because the dog is unable to eat and the foreign body doesn't move so the animal will start to vomit. It is a life threatening issue and the animal will require emergency surgery.
So please make sure that when you  do household projects and you use some gorilla glue that you keep it up high and put it away as soon as you are done. If you notice that the bottle has been chewed on have your pet x-rayed immediately.
