Watch that Antifreeze!

I just had to have a great Labrador put down. He had antifreeze poisoning. The vet said a few tablespoons is all it takes. So if you have a vehicle leaking on the carport, mind your pets. Mine didn't get into it at home but probably at a neighbors house.

RIP

I am really sorry to hear about your loss. It's bad enough when you sort of know it's coming but when it strikes so unexpected it makes it even more difficult. Having recently gone through having to put one down all I can say is that time passing makes it a bit easier but you really never get over losing a special dog or pet. I'm Sorry.

Had that happen to a boxer of mine when I was 14. An old jeep I had got a water pump leak, and she got into it. Killed her in less than 24 hours...

Very sorry for your loss.

Tom knows someone who has chocolate lab puppies that will be ready to take home very soon if you are interested.

Buck was a chocolate with a great personality. I don't think I could replace him, at least not for a while.

Thank you though

Sorry about your loss, I learned something. Did not know about antifreeze.

Yeah its very toxic and on top of that it taste "sweet" so animals like to drink it. Watch for leaks and spills.
