My dog ate gum or got it in their fur. What should I do now?

Question

Is it possible that your dog will get chewing gum stuck on his hair during a walk, or maybe put one in his mouth? Sadly some people are gross and spit it on the floor, and my dog will put anything in his mouth. In case this ever happens what should I do?

Oh yes, this is possible. If you do see Max try to eat any gum from the ground, take it away from him immediately. If he got any in his fur, you will probably have to shave it out. You are right, some people are gross!
