Cavalier Spaniel swallows an acorn
Dash, a four-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, suddenly became violently ill and was rushed to an emergency vet where he went into shock. He was stabilized and an ultrasound showed there was an acorn blocking his intestines. The vet was able to remove it using a tube with a camera to retrieve it. Dash fully recovered and is back to barking at squirrels. Healthy Paws reimbursed $17,050 of the $21,745 in vet bills with 80 percent coverage.
