Hey, I don't know if anyone is awake but I am really concerned. I went away for a long week-end and left Corky with a neighbor of mine who also has a Yorkie. When I got back on Sunday night I picked up Corky at 11:30 at night because I couldn't stand another moment away from him. Monday he was due for his bath and his Frontline monthly. I did both and then when I met my neighbor in the park she asked "do you put Frontline on Corky?" "Yes, I said, of course". "Oh, well I put some Frontline spray on him yesterday at the same time as I sprayed my dog". At the time I didn't think anything, though I wondered why she didn't bother calling me on my cell phone before doing this or why she thought he needed it, he doesn't have any fleas at all.

So last night we put his food out as usual, but he didn't eat it. My husband finally hand fed him and got him to eat. By 10:00 last night I had to pick him up to go for his walk. He peed once then asked to go back in. This morning he has refused to move at all and is curled up in a tight fetal position. I am going to run him to the vet (not literally, I am carrying him in his bag). We have been using Frontline for months with no problems. I am sure it is thanks to my "friendly" neighbor that he is sick and suffering an OD. I am SO WORRIED. My poor little guy. He never complains but he is moaning a little now. oooooh.
