My idiot black lab just ate an entire 3 pound tub of margarine. You know, those huge assed ones you can buy?

Is this going to cause a fecal emergency at my house tonight?

I can't imagine that any good will come of this. It took him less than 30 seconds too.

Feed it about 3-4 pieces of bread as a chaser. The dog sleeps outside tonight.

give him a few cloves of garlic along with that bread, at least it'll smell better.

This will be good.

Explosive diharrea will ensue. Dog will have empty stomach and intestines. Will get hungry, see mess on floor and lap it up. The cycle will continue.

There's a reason I don't own dogs.

Take him to Wal-Mart. Bring him into the men's room. History will repeat itself.

my Lab knocked a box of nine donuts off the kitchen counter this morning and wolfed them all down. it didn't seem to affect him, he was still begging as I ate the one I got before he got to them.

Nothing to be concerned with. He is cleared to sleep in your bed tonight.

There may be a poo emergency.

But I have a 100 lb lab that has at times eaten all kinds of stuff with no ill effects. A garbage disposal, he is.

Your pooch is in for a cleaning out

The image I see in my head is poo shooting out of his rear like water out of a fire hose as your dog desperately sinks his claws into the ground to keep from getting blasted across the yard like a 140 lb lone fireman trying to control the hose.

This may be an exaggeration.

Make sure he has plenty of water. Diarrea causes severe dehydration.

BTW, he's a bad dog to eat that nasty stuff.

He should be eating butter instead.

That's more natural and has a better flavour.

I hope you're not offended, but your dog has poor taste.

As if you couldn't tell when it eats old dog shit in the yard.
