BROWNSVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Seventeen dogs poisoned with
antifreeze at an Ohio family’s kennels are still showing some problems
but have returned home after veterinarians used intravenous vodka to
counteract the poison’s effect.
The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/1i4kzBh )
reports it could be a while before Licking County breeder Don Butts
of Blue Ribbon Labradors knows how his dogs will be affected.
His
family and veterinarians tried to help the dogs with the old-school
vodka remedy. One dog died, another lost significant weight, and a third
is moving slowly and having trouble breathing.
Investigators have
no leads in the animals’ poisoning last week at the kennels on a rural
property about 45 miles east of Columbus.
One of the breeder’s customers is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to a conviction.
