Today has been a pretty bad day! So it was good until I got home and put some flea stuff on my dog. Usually I look up stuff before using it if I am unfamiliar with it also I usually never use flea meds on my pup. Will today I bought some for cheap and should have known it couldn't be trusted will I went to google it after applying it to my dog who I must say is my baby and I love him so much I have his paw and name on my foot. Okay getting off track so I find out this flea medicine can kill my dog and has killed others which I then freak out and go bathe him twice with dog shampoo I am still distraught and freaking out I was crying and I call the vet I take him to. They tell me wash him with dawn dish soap so I have my mom run out to get some will I still cry and proceed to freak out. I then text my friend and I swear it seems like forever for my mom to get back but my friend is trying to help me calm down which she eventually is able to do and then my husband gets off and messages me and my dog isn't reacting to the stuff still so I run him upstairs once my mom gets home freaking out still and I keep saying please be okay, please be okay, please let this work, please let this work. So I wash him 3 times with the dawn and its been a few hours he seems fine but people have said it takes all the way up to 12 hours I am just really hoping nothing comes up in the night because the vet can't do anything they just say to keep them comfortable if they get sick. I feel like a bad mom to my dog but I didn't know and I know I need to stop beating myself up because someone else who also used the same product usually researches stuff before using it and her dogs were sick for a while but fine now it sounded like I just hope I got it off enough that he doesn't have any reaction I am just thankful I decided to research it right after putting it on and that is mainly because my dog seemed like he didn't like it and it seemed like cleaner so I knew something couldn't be right. I will from now on always look up stuff and I just won't use flea stuff because he never has fleas but the vet keeps telling me that he needs to be treated for them anyway even though there is only one dog in our house and he never gets flea. I just don't trust stuff like that even if my dog turns out to be fine which I am really hoping is the case. He has been there through a lot with me from grieving my dad which is why I got him was because I was having a hard time when my dad had passed away and my mom was worried about me so she let me get Samson my dog and he has been with me through my break up with a guy I was with for 6 years and he has been here through all my marriage issues and through being homeless and through my drug addiction and now my sobriety so I really don't know what I would do if something happened to him! As you can tell Samson is really close to me and really a big part of my support system he even had to live with my mother in law and her boyfriend and he was still super excited to see me when he was able to come back and live with me. He loves me unconditionally and I love him the very same which is why I feel so super bad about giving him flea medicine that has such a bad reputation. I am really hoping he makes it through the night fine like every other night and is fine tomorrow and so on and so forth because Samson is really like my child and considering I may never get to have kids he means everything to be especially since he protects me. He is a little dachshund in case anyone was wondering. I will post a pic of him! So this is Samson I know he is so super adorable. He can also be a pain in the butt but I love him and who couldn't love a face like that! I will let everyone know if he ends up being fine. Thanks for reading this long post about my furbaby!
