Anna Randal for Art-Sheep
If you have a dog you probably know the struggle of removing things they grab with their teeth, from their mouths. If you belong to the “shoes and pillows” category consider yourself a lucky owner, as these can’t be easily swallowed, while some people had to remove the craziest objects from their dogs’ stomachs.
These X-rays below show things like knives and socks, our four-legged small or bigger friends have swallowed. And while your dog’s IQ doesn’t allow it to eat a phone charger some dogs doesn’t seem to care. The collection of these X-rays are only a few contestants of the They Ate What? competition, where vets submit X-rays of the most weird objects found inside pets in the hope of winning a $1,500 prize. Now, thanks goodness all these items were successfully removed, otherwise we would have some sick dogs and a pretty macabre competition.
