A-Pass-Along (Animal Poison Control Center)

This pass along comes from my friend Diane after her black Lab, Bella, got into a bottle of prescription medication. She placed a call to the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at 888-426-4435. They are available 24 hours and 365 days a year. You may have a $50 consulation fee charged to your credit card. Bella turned out to be OK but gave Diane quite a scare.
