This little lady has been a part of our youngest daughter's family for 12 years. So you know she is well thought of. Well, last week our daughter left her home while she took her daughter to school. This time my daughter had brought the bird feeders into the house to keep the raccoons from eating the suet and sunflower seeds at night. The dog decided she was going to try the sunflower seeds and got deathly sick. We thought we would lose her. But the vet gave her antibiotics and she is starting to act like her old self. So, if you have small dogs keep them away from black-oil sunflower seeds.
I had no idea! We feed our birds black oil sunflower seeds. We don't currently have a dog, having lost our 17 and half year old Molly in December, but we dog sit our grand dog and will most likely get another dog ourselves some day. Sorry your daughter's dog is sick and I will say a little prayer for a complete recovery.
Sweet pic. So happy to hear she will be OK! Fav.
Thanks for the warning! I too have a 12 year old schnauzer but she is teacup size at 5 pounds. I feed the birds (what the squirrels don't eat) and she is always searching the yard for what is dropped...mostly the peanuts. https://365project.org/gardenfolk/365/2020-03-10
