If you hate those kinds of pics as much as I do, rinse your eyes out with this:

Quills are not fatal, and part of their education. Mine came home with a nose full and stood quietly while I pulled them out, which surprised the hell out of me. After I got one side done there was just one little drop of blood at each location. While I was doing the other side, his tongue would come out the front of his mouth but lick only the side I had done. I was amazed at the dexterity of his selective licking.

You say that, but Pilau's brother, Dante, was nearly killed by a grass stalk. I shit you not. He was sniffing at some long, dry grassstalks and one of the fuckers shot up his nose. He was about a year old, as I recall. Blood flooding from his nose and off we all go to the vets. Vet said it had shot right up into the nasal cavity and could have killed him.

Fucking grass. He nearly died, sniffing grass. How fucked up is that?

Yes, Dana.

Here in the States, these are the little beasties that send the children of vets thru college...

Grass or anything else that goes inside is a danger, even gum, candy, baked goods or peanut butter that are sweetened with Xylitol. However quills get imbedded before they get very far. Even if the dog tries to bite the porky, they stick before the dog can swallow them. Very unpleasant, and expensive lesson, but not fatal. Could lose an eye though.
