Dog Takes “Smug” Photo After Swallowing Costly Ball

Sometimes dogs do silly things. Swallowing undigestible items may be the worst of them. Here is a list of objects I have personally witnessed removed from the stomach and intestines of mischievous dogs: socks, underwear, sticks, leaves, wads of hair, tampons, panty hose, action figures, rubber snakes, paper towels, diamond earrings, a watch, carpeting, and of course, lots of balls.
