Hello Friend,

Good morning faithful subscriber, and a happy Thursday to you.

Finding a Carcass
----------------------------------------

You just never know what your dogs are going to find.

Yesterday morning my 2 dogs, Lewis and Jessie, ran out the door in an unusual rush to pee..

Lots of barking, hackles up, acting ALL tough

Knowing the 2 of them, I suspected it was directed towards some small mammal ( like a squirell)

I wasn't too concerned, so I went back to my enjoyable morning coffee, but didn't hear Jessie's repeated WOOF to get back into the house.

Hmmmmmmm

They have gone somewhere, or found something

I repeatedly called them, and they reluctantly came out of the bushes,
with the two of them licking their lips.

Agggg

They found the neighbors compost I surmised.

But 1 hour later, my neighbor was over walking Lewis, Jessie and his dog Pearl..

And what they led him to was a Carcass..

The chest cavity, and part of the neck. Something that was recently killed.

We have cougars, and bears around, so likely it was a deer, and dragged to my back yard.

I packed up the remains, and carted it off to the dumpster at the clinic. ( last thing I want is large wild animals in our back yard)

But later that day...

Lewis starts to vomit

As does Jessie

Clearly they both weren't feeling so great over what they consumed.

So what did I do?

The same things I advise that YOU do in this situation.

1. A Physical Exam, assessing both Lewis and Jessie- they were both mildly nauseaus, not dehydrated, with no real pain on stomach palpation

2. I took away their food for the night.

3. A remedy for 'garbage gut'- and this is one of my 2 favored homeopathic remedies-  Arsenicum 30C

This morning they are both feeling fine, with the 2 of them wanting food

P.S. Will you have a carcass in your back yard?

Likely not.

But will your dogs or cats have some type of illness, such as vomiting, that you can treat easily at home?

Yes
