Mary's Mama Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 This is an article about a poor little basset that came in contact with Tide Laundry Detergent. Please read. http://www.katu.com/news/story.asp?id=57295 Quote
Angelboddy Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 What a very sad story. That poor bassett hound. I can't believe she left her detergent on the floor in the first place. What if the bassett tried to drink it. Those kind of people make me made. :evil: Quote
sheltielover Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 Oh wow. :o That poor baby......I don't use Tide, but I do keep any kind of laundry detergent up off the floor away from my girls. What a shame..... :cry: Quote
sheltielover Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 That pic really got to me too, Daisysmom. :cry: Quote
Daisysmom Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 Yes! Looks so sore. Hard to believe Tide did that :roll: Quote
Angelboddy Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 It looks as if he was layed in acid, or burned. That poor pup, I hope he makes it! :cry: We use tide but not the liquid tide, and our tide is up very high on a self where the kids and dog can not get into in. I wonder if the powder form does the same as the liquid? Quote
abker17 Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 Yah, I use the powder stuff. :-? :-? That poor pooch. His owners should have been more responsible. :evil: :evil: Now he's suffering for their mistake. Quote
courtnek Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 te powdered kind is only very dangerous when wet....although it will cause some skin irritation, as it says on the box. Alot of detergents come with chlorine bleach already mixed in, or bleach substitues (color safe) which are also detrimental tot he skin..... dogs are like kids. They'll get into anythng and everthing they can. I wish these people had realized that. How many dogs/cats die each year from drinking antifreeze? It tastes like Koolaid!! People need to be more careful.... :evil: Quote
Malamum Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 :cry: :cry: :cry: poor puppy. I tend to border on the side of paranoia when it comes to Indy, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. I just don't leave ANYTHING in harms way. Quote
Kaleb124 Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 :o And to think that a local groomer told me to use TIDE to bathe stinky dogs. :evil: Quote
Rowie-the-Pooh Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 OMD! Poor puppy! :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: In the article it sais the Basset was in a CAGE. WHY would the pup be in a cage?! The poor dog, looks horrible! :cry: Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 This is a very sad case of this happening. but did you all know that household chemicals result in the death of more children and animals than gunshot wounds?!!! THis is happening to our dogs and our children. I hope everyone realizes that these products are terrible :evilbat: .PLease email me if anyone would like to find out where to get products that don;t have to be kept on the shelves, the are just as good, if not better than the toxic chemicals and they get delivered right to your door! :D Trust me, I have a bulldog and we researched a lot before we got her and one of the biggest things is to use nontoxic products because there aorways can be so bad. alaham@iglide.net Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 WOW......I had no idea that laundry detergent would do that to an animal. I keep all mine up too, but makes u wonder what it does to us too. I would never use detergent to wash my dog either, but wouldn't have thought it would cause such severe damage. Thanks for the article and the info. :o Quote
