Well, on Wednesday evening, I went to our first training class....
no dogs,yet ....owners/handlers only.
I was to meet one of my sons and his girlfriend and my husband for dinner afterwards. When I met them at the restaurant.....Steve asked me if the big bottle of Tums was new, or old....that there were only three left!! (yes, brand new bottle!! ) :shock:
I had put Coco in the crate before I left the house....apparently my son, (18,) came home and got her out, forgetting to put her back in the crate when he left to meet us at the restaurant. :evil:
My husband had swung by the house first and found the nearly empty bottle and a dog on the loose...... :shock:
Coco had gotten into the bathroom and counter surfed into the sack from the store sitting there.
STARVING.....
we had to leave the restaurant immediately and go see about her!!
I called the Emergency Vet as we zoomed home to find her just fine ~asleep in her crate.
I gave her 1-1/2 tbs. of hydrogen peroxide and she threw up a huge pile of foamy tums.
I was relieved, though the vet said she didn't think it would hurt her really.
I think 91 Tums is too many for anybody...let alone my sweet, nosy, thief. :shock: :shock: :shock:
It did worry me at first.....and she wasn't too happy with me for awhile after dosing her with the peroxide. :evil:
By morning she was back to normal, 8)
( meaning she could eat and drink again. I had been advised to remove her food and water for the night. )
Philip, the forgetful, begged for forgiveness for not putting her back in her " room" and Coco seems less eager to snoop on the counters lately. :? Bet if I put a roast up there..... that all would change! :roll:
Here she is.....doesn't she look innocent?
She looked pretty sick the other evening.....so sad.
