The emergency visit, surgery and after care will run over $1000. They removed about 7 POUNDS (over 10% of Jake's body weight) of soaked beet pulp from his stomach. It started as only ONE POUND DRY. I took a picture of it and him at the hospital where he'll be staying at least until tomorrow and will post later. There is still the chance of an infection from stray pieces of beet pulp possibly lost in his body cavity during surgery or parts of his stomach dying from being so stretched out. DEFINITELY DO NOT LET YOUR DOGS AROUND THIS STUFF EVER!!! Jake went after it with a full tummy of kibble after showing NO interest in the pellets in the past month he's been around them. He literally had to of gobbled it down in a few minutes between playing with the other dogs one room away.
