Subject: [NAGDU] Update on my pup

Hi List, 

Thank you to all those that prayed, sent good thoughts, or get well bives on
the list, emails or in text messages. I am so ready for this week to be
over. But I am very happy to report that pup is now home with me. She did
not have any complications like seizures, tremours, or fast heart rate. She
has had diarrhea and is on a very bland diet. But my girl is home. So to
explain more as my message was very short. My dog is a 6 year old black lab
cross from GDF. My husband I had left my puppy with a family who has watched
her before, of course they love dogs. We were going to the beach, and
thought it would be a good idea for my pup to have her own little vacation.
I travel alot for work, so she works long days. Now this is what I do, not
what others have to do. Please don't judge. my puppy had snagged a bag of
items that were purchased at the store off the counter. No one was looking
so she decided to eat the whole bag. The bag contained 12 ounces of dark
semi sweet baking choc  olate, a bag of carmel pieces, and a bag of
pretzels. Pup ate the whole bag, plastic and all. The mom in the family saw
right away what had happened, called my vet, which recommended that she be
taken to the nearest clinic. They were able to make her throw up, gave her
the charcoal, and observe her. This all happened on Monday, the day that my
husband I were to come home. Pup stayed in the hospital for a few days and
is now home. Pup is very happy to be home, but is definately not acting her
self. I was in contact with the folks over at the GDF, so they are aware of
everything that went on. It was very scarey. Of course this couuld happened
anywhere at any time. My pup was being very sneaky, which she can be
sometimes. 

Also, if my pup had done this with me present, I would of course have given
her the peroxide. We have some in a kit for emergencies on all levels of our
home. But this did not happen with me around. I also didn't know that the
subject of the thread had been changed, so didn't see all the messages on
list. 

As I mentioned above, I am ready for the week to be over. I am now sick
myself too. My normal bronchitis in the fall. My poor hubby, now taking care
of both of us. 

Thanks again for the support.
