More on Rimadyl and a SHAME ON YOU
Distance Run: 3 Power Miles (Count 'em people 3 in under 24 minutes)
Other Exercise: None - Not enough time.
As soon as I got home tonight, I went on a feverish hunt for Sophie's medical records from the last months of her life. It didn't take long for me to find them right where I thought they would be. As I went reading through them I did some comparing to the information on the Senior Dogs Project website. The more I read, the more pissed off I got and the more convinced I was that this was in fact the cause of my baby's death.
After I got done reading through her records, I got on the web and did some more research there. I came across the Yahoo group Doghealth2 and after reading the homepage, I decided to join. I was going through some of the more recent posts and I happened to find one from a few weeks ago mentioning a class action suit. I was actually surprised I hadn't seen something about one of those somewhere else but regardless, I'm glad I found it. I'm not sure if they will accept my submission because it has been so long since Sophie's death but I'm definitely going to try. I think it's time Pfizer is put in its place when it comes to this drug.
Now on to the SHAME ON YOU part of this post.
Last night I was watching the news and they had another dog story on. If it was possible for me to be pissed off even more than I already was when I found out about Rimadyl, this would have been it. Some complete asshole decided to take some superglue to an innocent little puppy's eyes, nose, and ears. What the hell is wrong with people?! YOU, whomever you are (yes, I'm talking to you asshole - the one who did this), SHAME ON YOU!!!
Til next time....
