WHAT HAPPENED TO MY LITTLE ANGEL DOG?!
Well, Gavroche had earned "loose" privileges a while back when he decided he can be a good boy and behave while I'm gone. So Logan's been crated and Gavroche has been loose for the most part.
Well, today while I was HOME, I was just DOWNSTAIRS, he's upstairs loose in my room...presumably being innocent
I get upstairs to let him and Logan out to join us downstairs, and I find PILL BOTTLES EVERYWHERE! :yikes:
Of course I'm freaking out, because there are definitely things in the pill bucket that he shouldn't have. That's why it's generally out of his reach, but Sir Pissy Face decided he's a big boy and can reach it after all.
Fortunately, he chose the supplements that are good for him. He's apparently smarter than I give him credit for lol. He ate half a bottle of fish oil, half a bottle of evening primrose oil, and possibly some Vitamin B complex pills (there were no more than 10 left in the bottle and I found at least 5 laying around squished, possibly more...apparently they taste like ****). Oh, and half a bottle of phytosterols. Guess he decided he needed something to go with those oils. Luckily the zinc bottle wasn't even touched, neither was my metformin or my "energy" vitamins (which contain caffeine). I got seriously lucky here. The turmeric was opened, but none were missing (don't blame him, they're stanky lol).
*braces for diarrhea onslaught*
This could have turned out SO MUCH WORSE than it did. He's got an iron stomach so I think after a couple days of the runs he'll be fine. I think tomorrow I'm going to invest in a metal lockbox or safe for pills. I thought the top shelf was good enough, but apparently not. Plus Gavroche will have to be crated again for a little while at least. No idea where I'm going to put a second crate, but I'll figure it out.
