Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The bandage may cause an issue for Dylan if it causes an obstruction, or it may simply pass through in his feces. I recommend keeping a close eye on him for signs such as lethargy, loss of appetite, or vomiting/diarrhea. I hope this helps and am happy to answer any other questions you have!
