Not a good week. 3 days ago one of our dogs was poisoned. We really don't know what happened, but with all the recent rain, it's very likely he might have eaten one or more Great Plains Toads. They are toxic. And the funny thing about dogs is that so many foods a human can digest are lethal to canines. Onions, garlic, chocolate. We just don't know what happened.
Anyway, my wife and I both thought the dog was dying, but she took him to the vet, they gave him an IV and once he was a little re-hydrated, he started showing signs of recovery. The vet wanted to keep him for several days more and charge us like a grand for his treatment, but we took him home, and I've spent the last three days getting up every two hours, giving him Pedialyte, and taking him outside. The dog has made a full recovery, but I'm pretty fried. So, if I've posted anything more deranged than usual in the last day or two, I hope y'all will understand.
