I think this thread needs to be merged with the bad electronics jokes thread.


(but I did chuckle ... just a bit.)

Stomach acid will be strong enough to dissolve aluminium.  I suspect it wont stay in the stomach for very long before leaving (where the remaining acid is then neutralised by bile).

The rest of the digestive tract is not equipped to dissolve aluminium AFAIK.  It will probably treat it like any other fibre and pass it.

From what I gather: mouth to bum time for a dog is approximately a bit less than half a day.  As of me posting this message it has been about 12 hours, it will probably have passed by now.   I hope your dog remains unaffected and I hope you find the cap.  Please post photos if you can.

Why not. For around 2 weeks when I got my cat in June I spend everyday looking at her crap to know how it was her digesting system.

When you had animals since you remember as I had, it's very common. Poop can tell you a lot way before symptoms appear.

Dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, pigs, cows, horses... I'm a country boy, my grandparents were in the agricultural and live stock business.
