You would never think you dog will swallow a penny.<br /><br />We do not know when or how it came about but he started out throwing-up and being the scavenger he was we thought he ate something, somewhere he was not suppose to. It began on Saturday evening and I tried things at home and didn't take him to the vet until Tuesday morning. <br /><br />After reading this the only thing that I see could have prevented this from being fatal. Was if we had took him sooner. And maybe if the vet had kept him longer and put on an IV. It was mentioned but was not done until it was too late. He went into kidney failure.<br /><br />Vets are at our mercy and we are at theirs in these cases. I spent over $1000 and still did not save him. Vets don't know what you are willing to pay to save your pet and sometimes wait for things to progress to make sure they have good reason to do what they do. I think mine did the what he thought was necessary at the time and we can't know if an IV sooner would have saved him or just cost more. Looking back I would have insisted they keep him longer. It's too late now and we will miss him greatly forever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1414701568193444547.post-74543589141968616942011-01-29T17:02:06.901-07:002011-01-29T17:02:06.901-07:00PENNIES KILL DOGS!

He was my service dog and I don't know how I can go on without him.<br /><br />Please, if you love your animal, don't wait to see if his tummy gets better with time. SAVE HIS LIFE AND GO TO THE VET!!<br /><br />Make the vet listen. Make sure they do an x-ray. This information was too late to save my best friend. Please don't let it happen to yours.bearachutehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208971697140134520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1414701568193444547.post-70974032371970974302010-10-04T09:21:18.229-07:002010-10-04T09:21:18.229-07:00Thank you for sharing this important information! ...Thank you for sharing this important information!
