look around for them
Would be highly unusual for a dog to chew and swallow oddly shaped metal object like a cam bearing. If they truly were swallowed I’d be concerned for the pooches health unless it’s the size if an Irish Wolfhound and can pass something like that. |

I took this picture after returning from the vet getting x-rays. Stomach and digestive system are clear. He knows he did something. Lessons learned to keep my work in the garage. I just got the crankshaft, crank and cam bearings and put them inside near the front door. Took the case in the garage, came back and realize the cam bearings were gone. We are now going through the entire house and yard. DaveB |

Thankfully the dog is ok. I see pieces of the box, did he actually chew a bearing?

Man's best friend?
X-rays are clear? Guilty as can be!! 100lbs, bet there's some force in those chompers? How much are new cam bearings? maybe need to spend more time with the beast |

Heck! By the time you sand the bite marks out of the bearings, your new cam will probably just be starting to spin free. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Assuming you find them first!

100 lbs, I’d be thankful he didn’t bury the crankshaft in the backyard. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

When I was growing up the dog would take my eye glasses from beside my bed and bury them in the carpet behind the sofa. I cannot see without glasses. |

One of our keeshonds ate my wife's glasses.
Ate all of the plastic frames but didn't ingest the lenses. Glasses were under "warranty" and they accepted the "hail damaged" looking lenses with hundreds of tiny teeth marks on them and gave us a new pair! The tech at the eyewear shop said that was pretty common as the dog was after the salt in the frames. Killer warranty! BAD DOG! |

Good thing they don't make bearings the proper size anymore (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
