Mia Rushed To Vet

Dear St. Francis,
Please watch over little Mia. Help her to heal and get over her illness.
In His name we ask,
Amen
 
Oh, I am so sorry! Praying that little Mia will come through this unscathed.

And as a reminder to everyone - please be extra careful about dropped or spilled medications. Dogs can and will find them on the floor if you can't. My Neechee got hold of one of my dad's warfarin (blood thinner) tablets when he was a puppy. I just happen to keep Ipecac syrup in my doggie first aid kit, so a small dose of that was immediately given, and he was rushed to the ER vet (which is reassuringly close). He barfed as soon as we got there, and the vet on call found the remains of the pill - it was almost whole. But it was a close call, as my dad is on pretty strong blood thinners due to an artificial heart valve. I was told another 10 minutes would have been deadly.

There are many different ways to induce vomiting - make sure you know them and have the supplies on hand. It's not being too careful - it's being safe!
 
Hopefully all is going well with Mia and she is progressing. Waiting for good news, prayers on their way.
 
Good News!!

Thank you everyone for the get well wishes. She is doing great. We brought her home last night and the vet said her BP and Heart Rate are all good. Besides the shave mark on her leg she is back to her ball of energy.. :)
