Though the headless body of the dog was discovered shortly after 1 a.m. Aug. 31, its head was not found until earlier this week, said Officer John Panco, public information officer for the Cen- tralia Police Department.

    Product Name Specie Breed Age Age UOGender Weig Weight Description Dogswell Vitality Chicken Breast with Dog Dachshund ‐ 3 Years Male 13 Pound Both dachshunds were fed approximately 3 strips of the treats each over a period of 3 days, both have become violently ill, one with vomiting and lethargy and the other with diarrhea. Flaxseed & Vitamins Miniature Canyon Creek Ranch Brand YAMS Dog Retriever ‐ 4 Years Female 104 Pound Day following being given 1 Canyon Creek Yam treat our dog developed vomiting (3 ‐ 4 times for one day) and diarrhea for 1 week. We immediately began a bland diet until we talked to the vet. We saw our vet 5 days 4 days Labrador later and diagnosed as a "sensitivity" to the treat. We began Flagyl (antibiotic) and Imodal (pet imodium). Symptoms seem to have abated now and bowels seem to be working well. I believe we are past our issues at this point. Waggin'Train Wholesome Chicken Dog Mixed (Dog) 10 Years Female 92 Pound (b) (6)started to have very soft stools on 8/15/12 by next day she has full blown diarrhea. We stopped givng her, and her brother (b) (6), any treats and fed only rice and boiled ground beef / chicken breast. Since (b) (6) had Jerky Tenders diarrhea before at first we were not very concerned. Our vet had previously suggested to give her small dosage of Immodium that would help to control the problem. However, on 8/18, Saturday, (b) (6) also started to have soft stools and then diarrhea. We still were thinking they must ate something in the backyard that caused the problem.
