Our 2 year old Golden Retriever is a canine vacuum cleaner. He grabbed what looked like a covid mask (turned out to be a men’s sock) off a sidewalk while on a post-lunch walk. A fierce struggle ensued. He got momentarily free of the leash — dangerous with the lunatics (who ignore red lights, stop signs, and drive freely on sidewalks) here in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The vet induced vomiting. Five pukes later (only one in the car on the way home), Kirby was fine.
