My dog ate a stuffed toy arm, then pooped it out. Should I worry?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | French Bulldog | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 9 months old | 23 lbs

I was cleaning up the yard from last night when Lou went potty...it loojed a bit strange so i inspected it. I was the whole stuffed arm of a stuffed monkey toy. The arm was fully in tact and he is acting fine. Should i be worried. Also my son just told me he saw him eat it.

The good news is that is passed out. IF there are no other pieces then you are fine and there is nothing to worry about. If there were other parts of the toy ingested, then all you can do at this point is to monitor for vomiting, decreased appetite or bloody diarrhea. If these occur then get him checked for an obstruction
