Apologies in advance for the spam, but I'm trying to get this out to as many sources as possible. One of our dogs, our 5 year old Norwegian Elkhound is suffering from anti-freeze poisoning. We've had her in the vet's office for the last 3 days on IV's trying to get her fluid level up and kidneys functioning again, but it's not looking good. I just want people in north Phoenix, especially the Moon Valley area to be aware and on the lookout.

Last week while my wife was in the hospital for her c-section and I was spending most of my time with her and our baby, we think somebody threw something over the wall to intentionally poison her. Two calls to the Phoenix PD and they still have not come out to take a report. I'm going to be calling the local media tomorrow to try and get the word out.

Please be on the lookout and watch after your pets.

Just wanted to thank everyone for the kind words of support. Hopefully we'll know more tomorrow when we take her back to the vet for additional bloodwork to see how things are doing. I've talked to all of our neighbors on the street and everyone can't believe what has happened and is worried about their own dogs as well. We've got a pretty tight knit little cul-de-sac and we're all trying to keep an eye out for one another.

Yes, anti-freeze is extremely dangerous to animals. It only takes 1oz. to kill a 50lb. dog. I've never had anything in the backyard that contains anti-freeze and the dogs are never in the garage. So it had to have been something that was thrown over the wall and into our yard.
