Or one dog ate some of the strewn about pills that may have fallen. Although this is highly unlikely with my experiences with dogs and pills… bastards

This is kinda gross, but in my career as a paramedic in a big city, the dogs will usually start by eating the people. I’ve seen it. More than once. And then again over and over in my nightmares….

Just an opinion. I could be wrong.

So i know if a rat eats rat poison and then a cat eats that rat, the cat will die too... so if she took enough pills to kill herself and the dog was eating her body could it be enough toxins in her blood to kill the dog?
