It was my understanding bait blocks contain bitrex to prevent this. I suppose a motivated dog would ignore the taste . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

It never even crossed my mind that he would eat it. He's not a chewer. But Boru is correct.

He's doing fine for now. I'll wait for the poo to come before I start freaking out some more.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Aw Steel, I'm so sorry. There's nothing worse than thinking you've hurt one of your babies, including furry babies.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Ofcourse I wouldn't you absolute moron. If he's already admitted himself it was stupid what fucking use is it for you to repeat it and make him feel worse? Other than to be a complete cunt?

What an arsehole.

No, but some things you just don't say.

Agreed.  He's already said it about himself.

He's already self-flagellating.

He doesn't need your help.

Best Wishes for Tanner.

That is doing absolutely nothing to help the situation, except to make you look like a nob. Steel feels terrible enough, so settle down.


Mike, I hope he's ok, and you don't beat yourself up about this too much. You made a mistake, because you are human. End of.
All the best

Oh gosh, Steel; I totally understand freaking out about this. My mom's dog once ate a Jerusalem Cherry and my mom ended up driving all over town in the middle of the night to find activated charcoal. The little shit is still alive, years later. If satan-as-dog lived through it, I'm sure Tanner will be ok.

I'll add a hug to the others you've gotten.
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.
