sorry to here about the dog mate,

I thought it took a couple of weeks to kill them but by the time you notice the symptoms its too late? A mate of mine caught one poxy rat with a young terrier of his then the week after had 2 digs to the dog and while he was inside recuperating he turned yellow. I didn't see the dog but my mate said that the whole dog looked yellow inc his fur (it was a russel). Not a nice thing to happen anyway. Keep them vaccinated and I think exposure to the shit that rats carry helps build an immunity, my dogs been doing rats in some grotty places since about 5 month old and he's never even swelled from a bite.

Gnipper I thought that myself about the 2 weeks.HE did say about the colour and a lot of blood around the arse .I think hes been bitten a week or so before hand and not noticed.

was the dog vacinated ?

[lodgesmith 4]

Not sure

[AKA-BRINDLE 879]

The yearly booster jabs for parvo and that also protects the dog from Weiles disease

[bullmatt 5]

your right brindle, the dog cant have been vacinated or booster not up to date, sorry to here about the dog but your mate should jab his dogs if he hasnt then hes an arsehole.and its all his own f*****g fault.

Obviously the dog was not injected so nobodys fault but his own,but at the end of the day its only a dog.could have been worse he could have got it himself it also kills people.A friend of mine kissed a golf ball a few years ago after a good shot(I dont play golf)and he contacted it and died.

people can catch it through drinking the rats piss...lad near me lost a lurcher when it ate one that had got into its run

i can understand the dog getting it,might of taken a nip when it killed it,but a human from kissing a golf ball,well f**k me whats the chances,not saying didnt happen but the odds f*****g slim,prob not best to put it to the test though
