We lost a fellow veterinarian yesterday. Thomas Gall was an old friend and vet school classmate. Thomas practiced in Blytheville, Arkansas. He, his wife and his daughter all died in a terrible car accident yesterday. He leaves one son. Please take a minute and bow your heads in prayer for his son and the entire family. We will miss you Thomas. 🙏

Thanks Trumann Animal Clinic for this very important information.

As the sourdough bread making trend continues to grow, it’s important to note the dangers sourdough starter can pose to your dog. Consuming unbaked sourdough can lead to poisoning for your dog.

🥖 Rising Danger
If ingested, unbaked sourdough can be incredibly dangerous for dogs. When consumed, the dough expands in the stomach, resulting in bloating. This can potentially lead to gastric-dilation volvulus, twisting of the stomach. This is a serious condition and signs of this include vomiting, unproductive retching, a distended stomach, an elevated heart rate, collapse, weakness, and possible death.

If ingested, the alcohol from the fermenting yeast is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, leading to alcohol poisoning. Symptoms include dangerous drops in blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature. Severe cases can cause seizures and respiratory failure.

Signs of Poisoning
If your pup has ingested unbaked sourdough, they can experience symptoms of poisoning quickly. Signs of poisoning include:
* Vomiting
* Lethargy
* Staggering
* Weakness
* Abdominal distention/bloat
* Unproductive retching
* Coma

🥖 What To Do If your Dog Eats Raw Sourdough?
If your pup has eaten raw sourdough, you must call your veterinarian and Pet Poison Helpline at (855) 764-7661 immediately for life-saving advice. Next, take your dog to your vet and have them checked out right away. Seeking prompt treatment can be the difference between life and death for your furry friend. Your veterinarian will administer the appropriate treatment to stabilize your dog and ease the symptoms.

Our Story

NAFA Mission Statement – since the first puppy mill rescue of 161 dogs in 1992, our mission has remained the same … to promote the humane treatment of animals and the people who loved them in Northeast Arkansas and surrounding communities through, rescue, abuse investigation, advocacy, education, disaster training and response, as well as low cost services. NAFA strives to elevate animals in our society, enhancing connections and transforming the bond between animals, people and our communities, instilling respect for all living things.
