You cannot know if the puppy ate these objects without a radiograph and even then, it may be difficult to see. You should be checking the stool for evidence of the beads. It is very important to keep these objects away from your puppy since they could damage the intestines. Monitor your puppy very closely for vomiting, not eating well, acting lethargic or diarrhea. I recommend to call your veterinarian today. They may want to examined your puppy and take radiographs. I hope this helps.
