Question

I have a male labrador retriever 9 months old. The things is yesterday morning he ate a sanitary napkin after that he did all the activities but yesterday evening he did yellow poop which was half solid and half liquid. I gave him the digestive medicine prescribed by our old vet. Then today morning he passed black stools solid. After eating the breakfast he vomitted all the food he ate probably after an hour. In the evening he was fine and active. But now he is sleeping alot is it bcoz of winter. Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 9 months old | 25 lbs

It’s difficult to say why Mickey might be sleeping more than usual. He could still have stomach upset or even a blockage from eating the sanitary napkin. If he seems very weak or lethargic you should have him examined by your vet. If he is normal when he’s not sleeping you could probably monitor him for a few days but if he vomits again, if his appetite is decreased or if he develops diarrhea you should see a vet.
