Ham, a two-year-old Pug cross, has always been a happy and lively dog who would bark and get excited at literally the tiniest thing she saw. However, lately, her mom, Victoria Northwood, had noticed that something was wrong as her furry friend was a little under the weather.
Because she was very worried about her well-being, Victoria decided to call the vet. The doctor didn’t think it was anything serious, but he still told her to bring the dog as a precaution.
Neither Victoria nor the vet could have imagined what they would witness that day.
Utter Shock
When Victoria brought Ham to the Newtone Clarke Veterinary Surgery, he was immediately X-rayed. At first, the vet saw something strange inside the stomach, but he could not yet determine with certainty what it was.
Even though, after taking another look, the vet guessed what it could be, he still didn’t want to say anything in advance, so as not to upset Victoria.
However, he determined that Ham would have to undergo surgery, so he quickly handed her over to his colleague, Emily Whitby, a veterinary surgeon.
After the operation was successfully completed, Emily came to tell them some shocking news. According to the BBC, Emily said that “around 50 to 60 hairbands in total” were removed from her stomach.
