i am so pleased to see that your baby threw up the glove , in tact!you always want to avoid surgery if you can....boxers do have a tendency to put anything and everything in their litttle mouths!my hercules swallowed a beer bottle cap, unbeknownst to us!one day he became very gassy, over the next two days he developed diahrrea, on the 3rd day he became very lethargic...when all he wanted to do was lay around i knew something was wrong!!!my dog hardly ever lays around!!!he came through the surgery fine, but complications developed, the acid from his stomach got into has throat and "strictured" it, tightening his throat.he had to go through 5 procedures to strecth his throat...and now all he can eat is blended canned food.but now if he swallows anything, it won't go down!that's the only upside, and the fact that my baby is a healthy thriving boy! good luck with yours!
