NYC Hazardous to Dogs

Well many of you know that the city has not been kind to Emma and Bella. They have been sick at least once a month since we moved here and most recently Bella was seriously ill and went into shock from an unknown toxin off the street. Tonight however we found another very serious hazard to dogs. Manhole covers. It is 10 degrees below zero here tonight (at least it feels that cold) and on our nightly walk Emma decided to explore. Needless to say the advice to school children not to lick the flagpole applies to dogs not licking manhole covers. Emma learned the hard way. Luckily it wasn't a full lick.

For those concerned: she ate her treat just fine when she got home.

Scary! Glad she was eating good when she got home! I did indeed see how blizzardous New York was on the news!
