client brings in her dog bc it's not eating or drinking, we take an x-ray and see an obstruction that we have to surgically remove. This is what we found. It's an Iron ball about the size of a ping pong ball. It has one spot that looks like it could have connected to something.

could have been for an old school bell.
Could be a small cannon ball.

Remnants of an old school trackball mouse with the rubber chewed off?

Probably right. I know. Everlasting Gobstopper.... or steel ball bearing - same difference....

Maybe there's an ol' civil war field around there? some yankee shot maybe? 12 pdr? maybe they filled it with 9-12 of these little balls packed in as grape shot.
