Melvin detroit, MI 4/24/2009 1:54:26 PM It's always good to know what to do in emergencies. Human or animal. I liked the article thought it was very informative.
Quanique Nashville, TN 4/19/2009 1:09:37 PM This a great way for beginning pet owners to have the knowledge for their first aid kit items. It's also a good way to teach future veterinarians on problems they can solve when their not true professionals.

Linda Corpus Christi, TX 3/18/2009 6:04:52 PM Thank you this was very informative. I had a medical emergency at one time, with one of my pups, at 2:00 am, and I had to take him to the vet that was open after hours. He was throwing up and couldn't stop going to the bathroom coming out of both ends, and I called the vet and they told me to at first give him baby benadryl, and baby electrolyte. After I gave it to him, it still didn't help much, so that's when I had to take him to the vet and they gave him a some shots and some antibiotics. He was not suppose to eat dog food for a few weeks, he had to eat chicken and rice with some juice from the chicken. I fed him that 3 times a day until he felt better or I started to mix it in his food, then started to give him his regular pup food little at a time, but sure was glad that I did take him to the vets, because I probably would of lost him. Now he's healthy and a happy pup. Almost a yr old.
