[quote=Anonymous][quote] Given their size, shape, and tough fibrous texture, corn cobs are difficult to digest and may become lodged in part of the dog’s intestine and cause a blockage. They are also very absorbent and can cause dehydration of the guts, further increasing the chance of a blockage occurring. The tough, fibrous exterior of the corn cob can even damage the lining of the intestine. An intestinal blockage caused by a foreign object such as a corn cob will cause your dog to become unwell and require veterinary treatment. Without treatment, the blockage would cause dehydration, loss of appetite, and damage to the bowel which can be life-threatening. The blockage can also pierce or wear through the wall of the intestine, which causes a leak of gut contents that is often fatal. If left untreated, your dog can die from a blockage caused by a corn cob within just a few days.[/quote] [/quote]
