I have a cockapoo and she stole a stick of chewed Trident and ate it before I could take it from her. What will happen? Will she choke and die? It was just one little stick! about a centimeter tall and half a centimeter wide! I hope she doesn't die!

it depends if your pet could tolerate the substances that the gum contains.

What kind of gum? This might be extremely severe and also you will have to be on the vet if the gum contained xylitol. You need to learn the contents of the gum. What sort of sugar was used? Is this a sugar free gum product? One stick can be serous.

She will be fine don't worry. It will probably just pass through her system and come out the other end. To help her pass it quicker and easier, mix about a half can of pumpkin in with her food. Make sure that the pumpkin doesn't have anything else in it. If you are really that worried then just give your vet a call and ask what you can do. I promise you she won't die!

Chewing gum is very hard to digest. I don't think 1 piece will hurt your dog but watch her and make sure she is pooing ok. The gum can cause a blockage.
My nephew was swallowing his gum and no one knew it untill he couldn't poo. They almost had to operate because there was such a big obstruction of chewed gum in him.
Keep an eye on her and I wish you both the best!

First of all you need to watch what your dog eats. But what will happen is that it might get stuck in the guts and your dog won't be able to digest the gum and the paper so expect dihearea

She'll probably have an upset stomach for a while. But it should digest. Also gum doesn't really stay in your stomach for 7 years, but it does take longer than most food to digest. She'll be fine.

Should be fine.. You have to watch gum tho, it contains an ingredient that can cause seizures among other things. Xylotol..
