My dog chewed her catheter. What to do if part is stuck inside her?

Question

Hello! I have a female black lab, Lucy, who has chewed her urinary catheter hose and of course the end going in her has now been sucked all the way in. Is there anything i can try tonight due to the fact that not Vet is open at this time? Thank you for your advice in advance!!! Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Female | unspayed | 3 years and 5 months old | 100 lbs

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can do at home to retrieve this. This is something that will require at least heavy sedation to be able to access that and retrieve it. This will be challenging and advised to be done by a veterinarian. I recommend that you have her evaluated as soon as possible to get this corrected. Good luck and have a good night!
