Nairaland GeneralCharlie The Dog's Life Saved By Drinking Vodka by Snidgo(op): 5:35pm On Jun 27, 2014
You're drunk, dog. Charlie, a Maltese terrier from Australia, was saved from certain death the first weekend in March by veterinarians who fed him copious amounts of vodka.
Staff from Animal Accident & Emergency in Melbourne wrote on the facility's blog that Charlie came in with a case of ethylene glycol poisoning. They wrote that ethylene glycol, an ingredient in antifreeze, tastes sweet but causes kidney failure when ingested.
"In Australia, the only antidote we have is alcohol," the blog states. "Alcohol alters the chemical reaction and stops the kidney failure from occurring."
