Question
9 month old st. bernard was found dead this morning. he had plent of water and food but was seen with yelolow and white foam out of his mouth and penis area. please let me know what you think he was also an outside dog

Answer
Oh No... I am so sorry Jesse:  Sounds like he could have been poisoned by somethings.  One of the most common things they tend to get into is AntiFREEZE.  

This is just a guess, but I would assume a 9 month old would not just pass away like that.  Again, I am so sorry about this!

Also, neighbors have been known to feed dogs poison inside of meatballs and pizza rolls..  Neighbors have also been known to feed a dog Bakers Chocolate.

Any other questions?  Let me know..
So sorry for your loss:



Marie
