Our poor 3 year old black lab, Oila (“oy-la”) is really sick. The silly dog ate a toy that is made with a tennis ball inside. She swallowed it whole and it can’t pass so she has to have surgery tomorrow morning. Because of this large unexpected bill, I’ve decided to have a pattern sale to help pay at least part of it.
Think ahead to the holidays. This is a great time to stock up on things you can make for gifts, decorations and craft fairs.

Beware of these toys
I got these toys at a Dollar Tree. I searched online a bit tonight and found that toys like this that have a ball inside are too dangerous for dogs. The slick fabric coating makes it too easy for the ball to be swallowed. Yep! Shouldn’t be sold as a dog toy for sure.
I’m so sorry for poor Oila! Thank you for the dog toy warning! Poor baby!
Oh no, hopefully Oila has a speedy recovery. Labs are known for eating weird things. I remember when I was a kid our black lab used to eat socks. thankfully she never needed surgery. I wonder if I can buy more than one punch card. I shared this on my facebook page I have a few friends who crochet.
my heart goes out to you and your pup. my lab is 5 now and i have to watch him all the time with his toys. glad i did not buy him any of those kind. i find the one that lasts longest is the large squeaker snake at pet supplies plus. has size large size plastic squeakers and is made for tough chewers. he still manages to tear thru as his mission is to take out the squeakers. he still plays with them afterwards till they fall apart. i have to watch him for eating the material, strings from the rope toys ect. he is on his third snake just bought them on a buy 2 get one free sale. most durable i have found so far.
sending u best wishes and hugs for all
Poor baby! I shared this link on my FB wall, I hope it helps some. Puppy love and kisses to Oila <3
Thanks for the heads up on the dog toy! So sorry for what you’re going through with your pup…it’s so stressful when they get sick or something happens and you have no control over it. I’m sure your young pup will bounce right back in no time. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
so sorry to hear about your pup will say a prayer for her
One of our dogs shredded and then swallowed one of those “stuffing free” soft toys when they were popular. Fortunately she threw it up, she no longer gets soft toys and only has two soccer balls in the yard and nylabones in the house. Hope your baby feels better soon
