Oh Rudickers!

Today our dogs came home from the Puppy Spa, also known as Grampa and Gramma's house. This is the place our little ones go when there are no bigger ones to take care of them when we are out of town. They have friends there, they are spoiled rotten and have many adventures chasing rabbits, barking at the deer, and on this trip... eating D-Con mouse poison.

Yes, on this trip Rudy found a box of D-Con behind a gigantic entertainment center in a place that a 20lb. dog should never be able to go, and he didn't share it with any of his friends.

Within about 24 hours Dad knew that one of the dogs had found it and all 6 dogs were rushed to the Vet to be checked out. After a few humiliating tests it was discovered that Rudy was the only one to ate any. They gave him 4 shots of Vitamin K, and he is doing great!

Given enough time and motivation there is nothing this little guy won't get into. He's always been a very BIG eater.
