Beware Poison

Saturday, 12 November 2011


Mop - labrador empoisonnée

Mop died on Wedneday 9th November 2011,

On Tuesday she went for a walk with Bregtje on the field between the camping car site in Saint Antonin and the river (see map below) - she was off the lead. She did not want her food that evening and the following morning they decided to take her to the vets as she passed what appears to be blood. She died later that day. 

The poison didn't affect he mouth nor her throat and the vet came to the conclusion that it must have been packed in something edible. 

She was poisoned by some corrosive chemical agent hidden in food, according to the vet who dealt with her, Dr Gobet at Negrepelisse. 

She was 11, and a healthy, lazy, loving, ‘’slightly’’ overweight Labrador, who although she liked her food didn't just eat anything.
Having said that there are 'natural' things she could have eaten that might have the same effect such as anti-freeze, onions or chocolate.

En français:  Mop est morte le 09/11/2011 elle a mangé quelque chose pendant sa promenade sur le champ entre le site des camping -cars et la rivière. Le poison a détruit son estomac pendant 24 heurs.
