In a TikTok video uploaded by a US veterinary technician on Wednesday (Oct 9), a dog is seen spraying colourful beads from its rear.

Water beads are small, colourful spherical toys made from super-absorbent polymer and can expand to the size of a $1 coin over a few hours upon being hydrated.

In another video, the woman posted the dog's X-ray scans, which showed the water beads inside its digestive tract.
