I'm glad to hear that. Someone told me today that the meds don't do anything and that if your dog is going to die it's going to die :( I think he was trying to make me feel better? :confused: Your words are encouraging! We both felt much better about doing something rather than just sitting around and waiting for it to start killing him (if he ate any).

Thank you so much! And definitely think of her dog as well! She doesn't deserve kids or pets.

I hope that he is doing ok and with luck he never got into the rat poison but ate something that didn't agree with him.
Good Luck!
Thank you! We are keeping a close eye on him for every little thing. Thor is Blake's dog till the end of time. Blake wants him to potty in the house so we can make sure it's not bloody. I put puppy pads down and he's using them, but he stands by the door looking at me like, "why don't you understand me, I need to go outside, I'm a good boy!" Poor little thing.
I didn't think about cuts, thanks for the heads up!

I'm glad yours is alright! And that picture with the great dane is amazing :)
Oh man that is scary! Thank heavens he pulled through. I have thyroid meds and our dobie was chewing on a full bottle one day! I saw her doing it right away and took it before she got it open. Pills are just as scary as poison!
They do like to cause us stress! Thank you very much. I love that picture of Thor and my mom's dane! Thor hates him for some reason and literally chases him through the house. The dane is 140 pounds heavier than Thor, it's hilarious!
