SANDY AND I


by: A.R.P. on Mon, Nov 26 2007

HI I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE MY STORY. I HAVE A GERMAN SHEPHERD AND HER NAME IS SANDY. IT ALL STARTED WHEN SANDY WAS 6 MONTHS OLD, SHE GOT REAL SICK. SHE JUST LAID THERE AND SHE WAS VOMITING AND SHE HAD THIS SAD LOOK IN HER EYES. SHE HARDLY MOVED, I WAS REALLY WORRIED ABOUT HER. MY UNCLE AND AUNT WERE VISITING AND MY AUNT SELLS VITAMINS. SHE TOLD ME TO GIVE MY DOG GREEN BARELY, I WASN’T SO SURE. I COULDN’T AFFORD A VET SO I GAVE IT TO HER, I CRUSHED THE PILL UP AND GAVE HER HALF AND SHE GOT BETTER. BY THE END OF THE DAY MY SANDY WAS UP AND RUNNING AROUND..NO IT WASN’T BARLY FOR DOGS, IT WAS FOR PEOPLE..
