How To Enter My Dog Rox: Craziest Vet Visit Contest

Only dogs living at Northern Colorado addresses are eligible to win.

Looking for some inspiration? I have a personal vet story that fits the bill...

It was a fun Saturday hanging out with my son and my Mom exploring Northern Colorado and taking in some sights. It was also the ONE TIME we decided to leave our dog out of her kennel for the first time for more than 30 minutes.

We had tested it several times before and she was always so good and never go into anything...until this particular day. We were gone for about 2 hours and when we opened the door and walked into the kitchen, the first thing I noticed was a whole bunch of chocolate bar wrappers and I knew right away what had happened.

I thought we had securely put away the bars but I was WRONG. Lucy "The Labra-heeler-hound" ate 4 full chocolate bars (about 14 ounces of chocolate)

She seemed fine for a while but after a couple of hours, she began to get real erratic and restless and I noticed her heart was racing REALLY fast. She started panting and whining and that's when we took her straight to the vet where we found out her heart rate was nearly 4 times higher than what it typically should be.

They had to keep her overnight to try and get her to throw up the chocolate and keep a close eye on her vitals. Thanks to the awesome work of the vets at Fort Collins Emergency and Rehabilitation Hospital on Lemay, Lucy  (who required $1,100 worth of services!) was well and has since made a full recovery.

She now stays in her kennel when we leave and chocolate is stored in the attic...just to be safe and sure.
