Tip:
It is summertime and many cars overheat and/or people are flushing
their radiators. Please remember that ANTI-FREEZE is extremely toxic
to our pets. It has a very attractive taste, and just a small amount
ingested by a dog or cat can lead to very serious kidney failure
and many times, death. Two tips; if you think your dog or cat may
have ingested anti-freeze, please contact your veterinarian immediately
because treatment is only effective if given in the first 48 hours,
and the sooner the better. Second, if you have pets, look for more
"pet-safe" brands of anti-freeze. They are marked as such
on the bottle. None of them are completely safe, but we need to
do all we can to make things safer for our pets.
