I'm doing a 3 part series on what I've learned from our 4 day disappearance of our sweet girl, who came home for a Christmas miracle! You can read
Part 1 here
part 2 here
Now we are rejoicing that hopefully with these tips, your baby is HOME! Praying that this helps someone like it did us! Let's go forward!
AFTER YOU'VE HUGGED & KISSED AND HELD A MILLION TIMES YOUR BABY.....WHAT'S NEXT??
1. CHECK THEM FOR OBVIOUS INJURIES, ABRASIONS ETC. ALSO CHECK FOR TICKS!
2. ONLY GIVE THEM 8 OZ WATER AT A TIME. THAT'S WITHIN A HALF HOUR OR HOUR IN BETWEEN.
3. ONLY GIVE THEM A SMALL HANDFUL OF FOOD EVERY HOUR OR TWO. IF YOU HAVE OTHERS, KEEP THEM SEPARATED FOR A BIT. I AM TALKING 1/2 CUP AND THEN 1 CUP EVERY HOUR OR TWO........YOU NEED TO CONTINUE THIS FOR THE FIRST 2 DAYS OR YOU WILL GET STOMACH BLOAT!
4. TAKE TO YOUR VET TO HAVE THEM CHECKED OUT. CHECK FOR GIARDIA, LEPTO OR ANY OTHER ISSUES.
5. RE-NOTIFY ALL VETS THAT YOUR PET WAS FOUND. TAKE DOWN ALL SIGNS. TAKE THE LOST/STOLEN FLAG OFF OF THE MICROCHIP. NOTIFY ALL SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS/GROUPS ETC THAT YOUR DOG WAS FOUND. RECOVER ALL FLIERS.
