Please everyone be incredibly careful with pets and antifreeze! Last night we had to put down the dog in my avitar "Jemma". The night before she was in the garage with me and I heard her lap 3 or 4 times at a bucket of antifreeze. She was close to 100lbs and I thought she would be fine because she barely drank any compared to her size. When I got off work yesterday it was obvious that she was not ok. I took her to the pet hospital but it was too late, her kidneys where already shutting down. The doc told me that they have medicine that can be effective if an animal ingests antifreeze but it is only effective within the first few hours. I feel horrible that I left an open bucket of antifreeze where she could get at it and I am only posting this because I don't want anyone to have to go through this and feel the way I feel.
