Ebbe had a bout of diareha last year that required a vet visit and some pills. Her Vet gave us more than enough pills and said they were nice to have on hand should tummy troubles come back. She's been given one every now and then since and they've worked great!
Last week there was the need for another dose and I realized there were only two left. It was late night, almost time for bed and I was going through my nightly ritual of fixing a Kong for the next day, getting a glass of water and setting my evening medications out.
I don't know what was going through my head, but the next thing I knew I threw a pill in my mouth and with a big drink of water ... swallowed.
:shock: It was Ebbe's pill! :shock:
I screamed, Ebbe barked and Marc was "What the....?!?" I didn't know whether to call the Vet or the Doctor! What I did do was phone the pharmacy, told them what I took and was assured that the medication was also used by people ... but not to be surprised if I was 'uncomfortable'
for a few days. He also thanked me for providing the most amusing call of the evening. :roll:
Ebbe meanwhile was looking at me and wondering why I hadn't put peanut butter on it. :?
The pharmacist was right ... I was fine ... but geesh ... what a moron!
I'm surprised I'm allowed to use scissors and sharp knives.
