[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am currently sitting in the emergency vet waiting room because my puppy jumped from the floor to a chair to the counter, nosed open a cabinet door, and consumed an entire bottle of pills (with a child safety cap!) while I was was in the bathroom. 3 minutes, tops.

That is why people crate their dog. I should have crated him while I peed, but I was lazy and thought he’d be fine. He wasn’t fine. In that same time frame he could have chewed the electrical cord, chewed my couch, etc.

If you aren’t actively watching your puppy, they need to be safely contained or you risk being where I am. And this really, really sucks.[/quote]

Sure, sure sure.

I say this with the utmost passion: F you.

I’d post the estimated vet bill but one of you crazies will call the emergency vet to verify and the staff doesn’t deserve to deal with that because they are slammed. In the 2.5 hours I’ve been here (since 6 pm) they’ve had a dog come in who ate rat poison, one who ate a bag of chocolate chips, and a third who got into a fight with their other dog over a found bag of crackers in the diaper bag while she was putting the baby down to bed. (Plus a seizing dog and a cat that was dropped on its head somehow :( )

I hope you never go through what we are going through because the guilt that I might lose my dog for something preventable sucks.

Crate your puppies when you aren’t watching them. It’s for their own safety.
