unexplained death of my shepherd

[OILCAN]

ok so i put max in the kennel with my other dog monday around 10:00 am, he had been fine all morning running around being normal. i go to let him out to run my property at 6:00 as we do every day! as i open the kennel max cannot see a thing he is blind and looks very week! we take him to the vet this morning ,he has blood coming from his eyes mouth and butt! needless to say we had to put hin to sleep! it would have cost me 400 bucks at osu animal hospitol for a autopsy, but i couldnt afford it , but now i wished i did! he was 4 great shape too! any ideas ? im puzzled!

Only $400? Wish you had asked for money I sure would've contributed $150 just to hear the results.

So sorry to hear this.
Nothing tougher than losing a good pet.

So sorry to hear about your loss.

Antifreeze won't do that to a dog. That is very odd. Could it be the food?

Rat poison would cause bleeding like you described. Would there be a reason for someone to do this?

thanks all! well only thing i have found out is that indeed sounds like rat poison! there is a farm about a mile down the road! i just cant believe he would go down there! poor bastard was probably after a little legg!!

But it could have def been anitfreeze/rat poison mix. The sweetness attracts rats and other pests.
Very sorry to hear you had to put him down, My buddy is putting down his golden retriever who he's had for 16 years .. I feel so bad for him but at this point to let the dog live the life he has now is to painful to watch.

I had to put my parents dog down(the dog we got when I was in high school) two years ago. It was sad but painless for him. I can't imagine seeing him in pain bleeding from everywhere. Sucks.

Also could have a leak of brain fluid, or CSF. In humans it can cause delirium, weakness, bleeding from the eyes and ears, and ultimately death. Possible he took a blow to the head?
