If your pets ever get into something and you are not 100% sure that it can’t cause harm. Call this number immediately (888) 299-2973. There is a $100 fee but it’s completely worth it because they will be completely honest with you. No one is perfect and mistakes are made. Ace has NEVER even tried to eat something he’s not supposed to but like DeAnna Simpson always says “ you think they never will til they do” Nevaeh ordered supplements for her skin & gut health. one bottle helps with both. She took one and walked out of her room for just a couple mins and when she returned, she found Ace with the bottle going in. Fortunately she just got them a couple days ago so she knew exactly how many he ate. Close to 30. Everyone went into panic mode and they all wanted to rush him to the ER. I kept myself calm and contacted the only ER i trust, Advanced veterinary care center in Davie. The lady that answered the phone was extremely friendly. She checked with one of the Dr’s and then came back on the call and told me to call this number, pay the fee and they will tell you exactly what needs to be done. They have all sorts of specialist for different things. They worked very fast to get all the info and within seconds he had the bottle pulled up. He put me on a brief hold while he spoke to a toxicologist. Came back on the line extremely fast and told me we can just watch Ace at home. He said worst case scenario would be him throwing up and or getting diarrhea. They also gave me a claim number and told me if anything changes, call them back and there would be no more fees. It’s very important that all medications are kept in a place where there is no chance of an animal getting them. This was a HUGE wake-up call for all of us but especially Nevaeh. The lid was not on all the way and they were on her dresser. Like i said , Ace has never taken anything off her dresser, a kitchen counter or anything else. Not sure why he did it but there it is again “ NEVER assume your dog won’t do something. Another perfect example is Maverick. He is constantly out front off leash, weather it’s to get in the car or playing with me. He has watched so many dogs walk by and he has never done more than just look that way for a split second and go about his business. Then last week out of nowhere, i was taking him for a car ride , just like i’ve done a million times before but this time the second i opened my door and began heading towards my car, I see him darting full speed out of the corner of my eye straight for a man walking his dog on the other side of my street. No warning whatsoever. No barking or crying. Maverick is trained not to leave the road without permission so as soon as he reached the street. He dead stopped. So from that day forward he has not been out without a leash on him. Once we get to the park , the leash can be removed but i will NEVER take that chance again.
