My dog ate washi tape. Should I worry about blockage or is it safe?

Question

Hello! My one and a half year old dachshund ingested part of a small roll of washi tape. The tape is very thin and papery but I just want to make sure he will be ok. I can monitor his bowel movements to make sure it passes but I want to know if I should be worried about blockage with that item. Attached is a normal roll for reference and then the pieces I found laying around. Thank you.

Hi I think the part of washi tape roll should pass through, as it will soften with the acids in the stomach and mix with food, however it may cause an upset tummy. I would monitor your dog’s feaces and have him checked over if worried, vomiting or if uncomfortable.
