Today, my partner and I had to put our one year old pocket bully to sleep due to a dog bone bought from a local store. Our beautiful Simba loved life and loved bones. He was the most genuine, placid and full of love dog that I have ever met 🥰 

According to the vets, this is a common occurrence and they take care of many dogs that end up with a bowel  obstruction due to dog bones. They do not recommend them. 

Simba ended up going into septic shock due to his colon being compacted with faeces and small parts of bone. His intestines started to die and sepsis set in. 
We had taken him to the vets who had prescribed laxatives and painkillers with the hope he would have a bowel movement. Unfortunately this was not the case. 
I urge you to sign this petition to get dog bones removed from the shelves of local shops and pet stores! We are heartbroken and if we can save one family from going through what we have endured today then we have made a difference 😢
