PLEASE TELL MY STORY: Love, Dozer

Our family has suffered a terrible tragedy. We lost the heart of our family, Dozer. We took him to the Vet for his seasonal allergy shot on Monday We were told his health was great, slight arthritis, but that his heart was so strong we would surely have him for years to come. !!
They put him on PREVICOX a drug for pain, for his arthritis ~ within 3 days he was gone, just a few hours after the 1st symptom !!! This drug is from the makers of VIOX which killed thousands ~ It has been RE marketed and put out for Pets under the name now PREVICOX. Your vet will tell you its a miracle drug that works wonders and for some it does, however its a death sentence to others, within possibly the 1st pill it will eat a hole in there stomach or first intestinal loop.. where bacteria will start to spill out filling there bellies, and going into there blood stream and soaking into there tissues. they will be awful thirsty or not at all, they will start to vomit uncontrolably this bacteria water !! then it gets into there blood stream where it soaks into there tissues and causes swelling, his brain swelled and started to bleed, thus a stroke !!! all the while there breathing is labored due to swollen esophagous and lungs. It will kill in hours ! no reversal possible !! Others have tried surgery but couldnt win the fight.! PLEASE spread the word for Dozer !!!!! we are doing the best we can -- please help us spread the word for the lives of Pets around the world and for families not to go thru this tragic time. There is another link at the bottom of more info to contact the FDA of other documented cases. Do your research and weigh ALL your options before making the decision to use this drug !! To know you fed your dog the very thing that took there life, is the worst to deal with !!!!
RIP our Sweet Baby Dozer~! 2/01- 6/10
Thank you all for your love and prayers it means the world !

Each time I read this story about Dozer I get teary eyed. It is tragic that Carrie and Ben lost the 'heart of their family' in such a terrible way. Please pass this story on to everybody you know, even the ones that do not have a pet.

I am so sorry for the passing of Dozer! It was not your fault, it was the VETs that gave him the medication; you trusted him to treat your dog right and instead, in my eyes, he murdered him.

I will continue Dozer's Fight any way I can.

God Bless you two.

Melody and her bullies - Tank, Pookie, Sandy, Belle, Boss, and Penny.

so sorry i will spread your story that is so terrible. it makes me so sad and mad that a vet would even prescribe it knowing the effects it can have on some animals. bullies are so sensitive to things and some vets just don't know enough about the breed.

Oh my god I am so sorry! I can't imagine what you'd even do in this type of situation, I don't even know what to say. Hang in there, things will get better--and bringing awareness will spare the lives of who knows how many other bulls.

Poor Dozer! I am very sorry for your loss and will keep this drug name in my mind every time I go to the vets. I pray other pets do not fall victim to the same drug!
