My dog ate some of my bbs for my bb gun. I left some of my bbs in my basements and she found it and ate it. Then that day she pooped out bbs. Is it bad for her. She poops every two hours. She sometimes has a hard time to poop and it takes too long for her to poop. Is the bbs the cause of my problem?

My dog is a Siberian Husky who is 2 months old. What can I do to help her?

There is probably a lesson here, eh? The obvious question is, How many BBs do you think she ate? They are not digestible, so they're going to pass through her. They shouldn't be inside here long enough to cause substantial harm. BUT...if she persists in having a difficult time eliminating, please get her to the Vets office for an exam, and do it quickly. Don't wait. The vet can do a quick ultrasound exam and see what, if anything, shows up. It's not an expensive procedure. Then, after she's all better, you can spend some quality time "puppy proofing" the house. She's little, she's curious, and anything that is small and bright could be something she just has to try. Fortunately, it wasn't landscape stones. Those can cause real problems. So can coins. This of her as a little kid. Because that's what she is. Get her checked out, make sure she's O.K., and then get on the basement!
Good luck.

I'm guessing the BBs are copper-coated, and don't have exposed lead, but make sure they don't. Other than that, just make sure your dog has access to a dumping ground as often as possible. My dog has eaten some gross things, and they always seem to come out. My sister's dog ate five tampons, with string, and they all stayed tied together and came out in one big shot. You can take a small leap to say your dog should be fine, provided there are no hazardous substances that could leach into her system.

If the bbs are lead, this could lead to poisoning. Also this can cause and intestinal blockage where only small amounts of feces can pass. She needs to see a Vet without further delay.

I would take her to the vet for xrays to make sure all the bbs come out. If they don't they can cause gastro-intestinal problems.

ok first, she does NOT been an ultrasound. those are very expesive and they are about twice as much as xrays which will show just as much or more.
Also, you should see a vet because if any of them decide to get stuck or pop through the intestin walls you are in a bad spot.
also, ultrasounds are to look at organs and xrays can see foreign objects in the intestins, so if your vet suggests one, go get a second oppinion before jumping on that crazy train.

i would take her to the vet. if she is having a hard time pooping then maybe a bb got caught in her intestines.

take her to the vet. see what they can do. if they cant do anything than ask them what kind of food or something you can give your dog to clean out his system.

If the dog is big enough, they should pass eventually. I would call her vet just to be sure.
