I have some sad news to report too!!
Posted On 06/29/2008 20:56:35 by ChiMomLisa

Tator

We had the privilege to raise this beautiful baby until he was old enough to find a new home and had the opportunity to find him a loving forever home with Tiffany and Mike.
Sadly, Tator lost a courageous battle with toxins that caused neurological damage to his little body. He went through unnecessary pain and suffering that could of been prevented if only we, the consumers were aware of the damage flea shampoo can do.
YES, that's right flea shampoo did this to this lil guy.
Tator's Mommy is heart-broken with grief and she wanted me to share Tator's story with all of you, so that maybe we could prevent more unnecessary deaths of our furbabies.
ONE MORE VICTIM IS ONE TOO MANY!

On last Saturday, Tator's Mommy gave Tator a bath using Sergeant's Gold Flea & Tick Shampoo. Shortly after, Tator's Mommy realized their was something terribly wrong. Tator began to twitch and whine. At one point, Tator was unable to stand on his own to go potty, so his Mommy assisted him by holding him up. She took Tator to the Emergency Vet. where Tator was diagnosed with neurological damage due to toxins. The damage was so horrific that it robbed this beautiful 10 month old puppy's sight. Tator was blind. He was only calm when his Mommy would hold him and talk to him.
His Mommy said he fought really hard. He started to get better on Monday, but on Tuesday he took a turn for the worse. The lil fella held on until Thursday, when he finally decided to let go.


After getting this devastating news, I started researching to see if this is a common occurrence and unfortunately it is.

Tator you were Loved and will be Missed!!!!!

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I believe in the Rainbow Bridge!!!!!

Oh my, that will make me not ever want to use a flea shampoo on any of my little guys again. I am so very careful to rinse them overly well after a shampoo with even their oatmeal shampoo.
