Finally, Mr. David took Ben to the clinic to see if he had any health problems, then was surprised by the doctor’s endoscopy results, which showed a bunch of round objects lying in his abdomen. this pet dog. As it turned out, they were golf balls with a diameter of 4 cm. However, the strange thing is that Ben has swallowed up to 16 golf balls, leaving his stomach almost empty.

Ben has swallowed up to 16 golf balls in his stomach.
“I was terrified when the doctor told me about the balls in his stomach. They said it was a golf ball and I thought he only swallowed one or two, but they said, no, he swallowed 16 of them. I couldn’t believe it. I’m not a golfer so these must be stray balls he found and swallowed. This also shows the level of golfers in this locality. how good,” said Mr. David humorously.
In the end, Ben had to undergo a two-hour emergency surgery to remove the ball and David praised the doctors at Northwest Veterinary Specialists for their dedication.

Now, Mr. David is teaching the naughty dog not to swallow foreign objects such as branches or balls.

Meanwhile, Dylan Payne, a surgeon at Northwest, said: “We did a gastroscopy and it showed a large blockage due to golf balls, lots of playing balls. golf.
Ben’s stomach was so full that we needed an urgent surgery to get the balls out. This is a relatively common, low-risk surgery, but taking out so many golf balls is unique, too much for a Boxer. The surgery was a success and Ben is back home healthy and gaining weight again.”
