| Gizmo's tale.. Hey all! Well, I haven't been on here in a few weeks, but I wanted to tell you what has happened with my puppy and how good God is... A week or so ago, my little fur-ball got ahold of something he shouldn't have. He has a big paper fetish, and seeks out all paper products he can.. he is worse than a 6 month old human baby...lol. Anyway, he had what we thought was a piece of paper in his mouth, but when I fished it out I found it was one of my husband's headache powders. (Stanback, with 850mg aspirin and 65 mg Caffeine). Well, I was really worried, and with good reason. It's a pretty lethal dose for a puppy, even if mine is bigger than most (he weighs 8.2 lbs. at 5 months) Well, he was up all night, and so was I. He was bouncing off the walls, seeing things I think, and barking at every tiny noise, and he usually sleeps all night. Well, the vet was concerned that his kidneys would fail, so she said to watch him for a week, and we gave him antiemitics and other meds to help with acid so it wouldn't hurt his tummy. A week later, we checked his labs and Praise God he is perfect. No kidney or liver damage! Just wanted to tell you all, and please be careful about stuff they can get into. They are sneaky boogers!! |

| I am glad that Gizmo is doing good. I know that these babies ban be really fast at getting into things. I had to "puppy proof"more then what I had to "child proof" |

| Wow, I know you must have been scared to death. Your little guy had a guardian angel looking over him. I swear I worry more about my two than I ever did my two grown sons when they were little. It's like having forever 2yr olds. LOL and I love it.

| So glad he's okay. I totally know what your saying. A few weeks ago while i was at church Ella got chewed open my boyfriends dad's Diovan (blood pressure) meds. She got right in his bag and took them. We discovered that she had eaten a half of only 1 pill. It was Sun. so i couldn't get ahold of any vets and the ER vet told me to call poison control. Well i did and they wanted to charge me $60 for a stinking phone call. The net was no help either. I kept getting Diovan for dogs. Ugg. It's been about 3 weeks now and she's fine. It was quite a scare though. You have to be so cautious about what you leave laying around. =]
