coffee beans are bad for your dog

.

Just in case there was any doubt in your mind, coffee beans are bad for dogs.

We managed to let ours eat an unknown quantity of coffee beans yesterday.  Unfortunately, I had no idea that he'd eaten anything like the number he ate, until this morning.....   Had I known yesterday morning, we could have induced vomiting and spared all of us an ordeal.

As it was, he and I were up all night, as he was very restless.  We had two zero-dark-30 walks, and another at 8:something am, which is when I got back more than one or two beans and discovered the extent of the problem.

We went to the vet, who says he'll almost certainly be ok, but we were lucky.  He was clearly symptomatic all night, and still symptomatic this morning.  If he'd eaten more beans than it seems he ate, this could have killed him.  Do not let this happen to you.......



You can do a lot of reading, when you're up all night.  I'm close to finishing my second book since 12:30 this morning.............
