Hi Sharon,
You must be so nervous waiting and watching to see if there are any
complications with that darn string! Someone on the list just went
through a nasty episode with dental floss. I'm trying to remember who
that was and what they did. I do remember a visit to the vet. I'll try
to look through the archives and see what I come up with. Are you sure
that he didn't chew off just the 4" and the rest is laying around on the
floor somewhere?

Beeper swallowed about 12" of nylon string from one of his toys. Has
passed by way of a bowel movement about 4". Have called the emergency
vet in Verona, Va. and was informed that if Beep's appetite remains
good; he continues to drink water; he continues to go to the bathroom,
everything should work itself out of his system.
If anyone out there that has had a similar experience, please let me
know of any details; e.g., any other thing for which I should be aware
and/or for which I should look!! Please let me know.
