🏝What do you do when it's 5 knots on the reef and you'd rather be fishing? 🎣
This handsome fellow is 7 months old and full of energy, but in his enthusiasm for all things fishing, you'll see he is also full of something else... check out the xrays!
Inexplicably, some dogs find lead sinkers irresistible and apparently, delicious. Unfortunately, lead is very toxic to dogs.
Happily for this young fellow, his humans worked out what he'd been up to and they knew exactly what to do. He was promptly brought in for an emergency consultation and the decontamination process began. Our veterinary team worked to remove as much lead from his system as possible. We won't go into too many details (hint: 🤮+💩 = 🙂) but suffice to say, it was a lesson well learnt.
🫵Pro tip: lock up the fishing gear in case your four-legged friend takes their own initiative with the sinkers, and enjoy the beautiful weather at this time of year!😎
