I have been using this "oil cleansing method" for my face, and it calls for a bit of castor oil and olive oil mixed together. Anyhow, when I finished today, I couldn't find the lid, and so I just set the bottle on the edge of the tub, figuring it would turn up.<br><br>
While I was at class tonight, apparently the dog knocked it over and drank about 4 ounces. She is seven months old and weighs 40 pounds. She has, as my dh so nicely puts it, "the squirts". On one hand, I'm feeling pretty sorry for her; on the other hand, I'm just laughing at her.....I mean, how horrible does castor oil taste!?!?!!? How could she thought that was a yummy thing to consume?!?<br><br>
Poor thing, I'm setting out extra water and giving her acidophilus to help reregulate her bowels. I thought about giving her a little beer or some sort of alcohol to try to relax those smooth muscles, but then I thought better of that; one intervention doesn't need to lead to another; I'd probably just overdose her, then have to take her to the emergency vet clinic in the middle of the night and try to explain how this all occured.<br><br>
She's out there barking up a storm right now at every little motion; every time she barks, she "squirts". I'm going to have to let her in soon, it's getting close to ten o'clock. This could be a long night. It's what I deserve, leaving the castor oil in reach, but who knew a dog would go for that?!<br><br>
