The symptoms may be related to ice melt ingredients and it will be interesting to see what the results find. Both the vomiting and cardiac issues can come for regular ice melt so I hope your dog pulls through and that you help spead the word on animal friendly and environment friendly ice melts listed here.

My Golden has always been healthy and about a month ago she started having some issues. Every 5 days or so she would vomit once or twice, need out more often, and wouldn't eat although she still mooched. We had blood work done and her WBC was elevated, her kidneys were near normal, but a little elevated. She went in again on Friday and had an ultrasound done and has fluid around her heart which they tapped and removed. A little has come back and that they will remove today. Of course it being the weekend won't know til Monday afternoon the results of the fluid. The reason I write is that she is a real big paw licker after coming in from outside and unknowingly we have been using ice melt that is dangerous. Thank you for the article.
