Love is not suppose to hurt. They are God's creatures too that deserve to be loved, and protected by those that take them in. If you get a pet take it in for life or reconsider your decision of getting one. They are family and do not deserve to be bounced around like they mean nothing.

6. An amount as small as 1-2 tablespoons can kill a 10 lb. Dog. 2-3 for a 20 lb. Dog.
WHAT TO DO:

2. Do not allow pets to roam to avoid getting it from a neighbor.
3. If you even think your pet ingested antifreeze take them to the vet or ER immediately.
4. Treatment must begin within 5 hours.
5. Keep all products that contain ethylene glycol high off the ground, tightly capped and properly
dispose of empty containers.
