Canine swine flu?
So can dogs get swine flu? There has been a mystery puker at our house for the past couple weeks. It probably has nothing to do with the swine flu and a lot more to do with the fact that two weeks ago today, one of the dogs got a bowl of hamburger grease off of the counter and ate the whole thing. Now I know that Midas had to get the bowl down, just because Lucy wouldn't be able to reach it, but once it was down I don't really know who ate it. And I don't know who puked on the rug while I was at WalMart buying chewable Pepto for them that morning, or who puked twice the following Monday, or who puked the following Saturday, or who puked this morning. But, Lucy was kind enough tonight to puke right at my feet while I was doing the dishes. So all this time that I've been accusing Midas of eating the grease and doing the puking, but maybe it was Lucy? Both of them seem completely fine, but neither of them ever throw up in the house...except during peach season. So we'll see...perhaps my experiment needs some better controls so I know who is doing what when we're gone.
