    umm...

    No RX stuff, not even for myself :P

    we have some gauze (i'm a bit accident prone myself) for the dog for any lesions he gets from going bananas.

    some kind of styptic powder for broken nails.

    clorahex solution (1 gallon jug) for his feet


    thats it.

    The only thing I have to add is Gas-X. If you catch your dog in the first stages of bloat, it will buy a little time while rushing to the vet.
    That is very good to know. Bridget had bloat before. Took her to the vet to get checked out and the vet confirmed that she had bloat. Without the money to pay for the treatment we did what we could do with the money we did have. Bridget recovered and all was well again.

    you guys are so prepared!

    All I really have for emergencies is hydrogen peroxide in case Snorkels eats something and i need to make her puke. Came in handy with the grapes.
