Supportive IV therapy for 2 days. Poodle had swallowed half of the sofa sponge. The sofa had been replaced.  Follow throught - now fully recovered as at Oct 12, 2016. 

History of access to foreign bodies by very young dogs is very important.  The owner did not think that the sponge was the cause but a lot had been chewed off, impacting the stomach. With time, the sponge pieces are passed out.
