I didn't make out too bad, considering our wrestling match. One scratch on the forearm and a bruise under my jaw from his big fat head. I'm better off than the bathtub faucet did last night. I knew I shouldn't have felt sorry for Floyd and given him a warm bath inside. I should of given him the cold garden hose. He slammed the faucet with his noggin shaking H20 off himself. Damn dog never even flinched. Faucet is toast....

I did the hydrogen peroxide deal about 9 years ago when my now 12 year old female jumped on a counter and ate a whole bottle of Rimadyl Why she chose to do so I will never know....

At least nowadays, Rimadyl is flavored to taste vaguely like a meat treat - it may have been just tempting enough to seek out an eat... but so, so dangerous at a whole bottle! Oscar got into a pill case that belonged to our geriatric old Pom a few years ago... destroyed it and ate a whole week's worth of daily "cocktails"... thank GOODNESS Eddie only weighted 7lbs - 7 days worth of drugs was only bad enough to make my 95lb dog have to pee real bad! (diuretics were included in the mix) Just about gave me a heart attack though...

I've used peroxide once to get Oscar to chuck up a plastic sandwich baggie filled with vegetable sticks (I only found out what was inside after it came up) - worked well, but Oscar did feel pretty ucky the rest of the day. It's a good trick when you really need it, but it's not pleasant for them. Not as pleasant as, say, just horking up a poorly chewed meal then getting to eat it again.

Prior to that, he may have eaten potentially poisonous buckeyes. (nuts, not football fans.)

Oh, see, in the northeast we have these confections called "buckeyes" - they're golf ball sized peanut butter balls with a blob of dark chocolate in the center... you can add those to the list of 'buckeyes not to be ingested' by dogs...

The confection may have begun here, but I dont' know the certain history. Everything in this town is Buckeye-related. (Ohio State University.)

Well that makes sense!
I just know that I only see them sold in gas station convenience stores, next to the handmade cider doughnuts... (and I've never tried one - but the doughnuts are awesome!)

I think they're gross.

Cider donuts, on the other hand...wow.
