When I called this lawn service, I asked several times how safe their treatment was for small dogs and was assured it was completely safe as long as I followed their instructions. I even read what they said about it on their website. When I asked how long they needed to be kept off the grass after a treatment, I was told that they could safely return after the grass had been completely dry for one hour. Of course that's what they'd tell me - they wanted my business.

Perhaps if we all had 100 lb dogs it wouldn't affect them, but since we all know (many of us all too well) that it doesn't take much for these little guys to be overexposed, I would err on the side of caution. We always told our customers a minimum of 24 hours and better if that long then watered in and fully dry.

So glad he is back his self !

Ohh Bonny! the 1st few pages got me so scared! So happy Maddox is back to normal & pooping firm tootsie rolls!

Momo roomba ate a really tiny piece of turkey bacon that I was eating (he got to it 1st) & he had explosive (sawwie tmi!) diarrhea. He was fine after that, now I'm very careful not to drop anything. They're like widdle furry sharks circling my feet when I eat lollll, hoping I'll drop something.

I definitely will from now on, thanks to your information.

Maddox is still doing well. He was all bouncy and perky this morning, ready to play long before the alarm went off.

Today is day three of the meds and he'll take the last of the liquid med tonight, thank Goodness. He doesn't like me shooting that stuff in his mouth! He still has to take the pill med for seven more days but I just disguise it as a treat and he gulps it right down.

Hi Jenny! And thank you! I'm so happy about the tootsie rolls.....we were outside last night and Maddox went to potty. I followed him to examine the "evidence" and caught myself telling him how nice and pretty his poop looked and how proud I was of it. I hope none of the neighbors overheard me say that.

Aww, my little Momo-man was sick?! Poor baby, I'm glad he got better so fast. Still, maybe you should give him some extra lovins from me just in case.

Hugs,
Bonny

Ew, Bonny. Just kidding. Sometimes I find myself congratulating Cooper on his nice poops.

Geez..I do this too!! LOL My phone is crazy right now and called my husband when I was in the car. He heard me talking to Tilly and asking if she was doing ok and not to throw up. Then I was parking and looking back and saying how good she was that she didnt throw up and on and on all in baby talk! LOL Of course he listened to me and was laughing the whole time!!!

Praise god hes home and ok. I still think it might have been the lawn. Either way, just keep them off longer next time.

Thanks Deb!

Maddox is still feeling good. The vet called and the results of the fecal they sent to OSU came back negative - he doesn't have the new parasite they were testing for.

Thank you.

I really think it was the lawn, too. I don't know what else it could have been, since all of his test results were so good. A virus is possible, but since none of my others were sick I'm doubtful Maddox had one. I will definitely be much more careful in the future!!

That is so funny. Just think of how embarrassing it would be if people heard all the things we say to our doggies

We should write a book! Not using any of our real names of course.
