Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Female | spayed | 8 years and 6 months old | 70 lbs
My dog just threw up a used tampon, i think it was in her for a couple days because it came out really brown and old looking. Will she be okay now?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If this is all she ingested then yes she is likely going to be fine now that she threw it up. I would encourage you to continue to monitor her for signs of a gastrointestinal obstruction such as vomiting, abdominal pain and/or inappetence and if seen have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a great day!
