My puppy ate underwear string. Should I worry if he seems fine now?

Question

My puppie has recent got a part of my undies from clothes I was folding and he tore them to pieces. I didn’t think anything of it. But checking his poop I saw red strong from the undies. He seems seems his normal self. Should I be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | Beagle | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 21 days old | 15 lbs

Well that was naughty of him. If the material is coming out that is a good sign. We get concerned about possible foreign body issues when we see vomiting (even water), decreased appetite, and lethargy. As long as he is still bouncing around, eating well and acting like his normal self, there is no need for concern. If he does start to have symptoms, then a vet visit is highly recommended. Just try to keep him away from things he can ingest and always monitor him when he is outside of his crate. He should be crated when he is home alone to keep him out of trouble! : ) Best of luck with your puppy Butterscotch and I hope that he continues to do well! Take care.
