A Panic Moment in my Life

Brother gave me a ferror rocheo before heading home. I placed it in a plastic bag full of other stuff. Hubby & Mico came to pick me up. Mico was in the back of the van and I placed my bag in between the driver and pasenger seat.

Stupid Mico poked her head into my bag without me knowing and started eating the chocolate. Ate entire top coating of the chocolate before I discovered.

Rushed home and tried using my fingers and spray water into her throat to force her to throw up but got bitten instead. Called the vet and vet advised to give her a teaspoon of salt to make her vomit.

Gave her that salt and initially she was quite willing to eat it. Within 1 minute, she started vomitting foam in a mixture of white, chocolate and red colour. Red colour is because hubby fed her watermelon earlier. Retching for 15 minutes followed by diarhoea of brown/yellow & red, which I think is because of the watermelon yesterday again. Initially thought that it was her insides!So scared.

Never panicked so much before. Stupid hubby took it very lightly about Mico eating chocolate and simply refused to believe the seriousness. In self denial! Simply bochap and stayed in the room while Mico and I were in the bathroom retching. Din even attempt to help me to search for Vet's no when I was frantically searching any emergency no. Pls, anyone, pls drum that concept into my stupid Hubby's brain that chocolate is poisonous to dog and it is serious! Somemore can take aftermath photo of Mico suffering. The most heartache part was already washed away by me then. If I din wash away, Mico would attempt to eat back her vomit.

My heart aches so much for Mico. After all that pucking, she's a wet, weak and sick dog. but still can play the towel game with me when I tried to wipe her dry. after that still can go chase my clothes when hubby threw it into the laundry basket. I cried when I saw her resting. I could have just lost Mico like that!

She seems allrite now. Need to monitor her tonight. Wonder what to feed her tomorrow so that her stomach will recover slowly.

Never will I eat chocolate in my house again!
