our female pitbull had gotten into the garbage early this morning.
we are assuming she ate something with "hairdye" on it. ( i had use hairdye last night and placed it into the garbage.
when we woke up this morning our dog was unable to keep her balance.
we laid her down and tried to give her fluid. she was dueling , and looked like it was not going down into her stomache.
her temperature was at 90.4 and keeps dropin. last hour it drop 4 points.
my husband had just rushed her into the medical center. he just called me and told me they are unable to get a tube down into her stomache.
is her esphogus swollen?
what type of damage could have happened? the hair dye;s content is ammonia, potassiom sulfate, sodium chloride
i would appreciate any help you can give me, to give me a heads up on what is going to happen, and what happend to her already
