Puppy on birth control

[polm]

my GF just called and told me our 11 week old puppy (1/2 Pomeranian 1/2 Pekignese) has just eaten ALL of a full months supply of Orthotrycyclin (sp?) .

She is calling the vet right now.

Oh man...I hope our puppy is ok.

UPDATE

They have told her to give the dog Hydrogen Peroxide to force her to puke it all up. My GF is administring the H.P. right now, and the puppy has already puked some stuff up.

UPDATE #2

The vet has told us that the Estrogen can cause blood problems (Anemia, etc.), and bone marrow problems.

They are giving her charcoal today, as well as issuing fluids via a catheter (sp?) to speed up the movement of the drug through her system.

We will hopefully get her back home tomorow. We will be watching for bruising or any other sign of blood problems. We will also have to get her blood count taken a few times over the next couple months to be sure she is OK.

The veterenarian seems to be extremely optimistic, so we are too.

Sounds like the gf wants to get pregnant if you ask me. jk

They may have to "pump" the dogs stomach... assuming thats possible.

OK, just talked to my GF.

They have told her to give the dog Hydrogen Peroxide to force her to puke it all up. My GF is administring the H.P. right now, and the puppy has already puked some stuff up.

Sounds like you might have to stick to your palm until your gf gets more pills.

Bad pun, I know. I just had to say it. Hope the puppy is ok.

 

[quakefiend420]

Poor dog. What a day she's having.

If your puppy has emotional issues after the bulk hormone therapy, he can always join FIGHT CLUB!

Hope your puppy is ok.

How the hell did it get to the pills though? Aren't they in the round plastic container enclosed in plastic/foil? It's not like it's an open bottle or something ...

 

[ohtwell]

I hope the puppy is okay and unaffected by the medication. Hopefully your gf won't leave them where the dog can get to them next time.

the packet was left on the cofee table, by accident, and the puppy got a hold of it. She chewed until most of the pills popped out, and then she ate the pills.

Wow. I guess you can never be too careful with animals and/or kids around! :Q

Good luck, hope she pulls through.

I think the girlfriend wants to get pregnant....I wonder if this is the same "dog" that ate my homework in grade school too.....hmmmm.

 

[maziwanka]

oh man. i hope things are fine!

Dogs do have sharp teeth you know.

 

[VirtualLarry]

I had always thought that Hydrogen Peroxide was never to be taken internally? But it can for a dog? Whatever happened to "Syrup of Ipitac" or whatever that stuff was that my mom gave me as a kid to help make me puke after I ate some random thing...?
