An adorable dog called Agatha nearly poisoned herself when she munched through a bunch of daffodils she pinched from a vase.
Full-of-fun Agatha thought the spring flowers were a tasty treat left out for her on the dining table by owner Lynsey.
Daffodils are potentially fatal for dogs because they contain several toxic chemicals which can cause severe vomiting and diarrhoea, as well as problems with the heart and circulation.
Our emergency team in Newport checked Agatha over and established that because she had been sick already she was at less risk of absorbing enough of the toxin from the daffodils, and therefore was likely to avoid any serious threat to her vital organs.
Soon Agatha was well enough to go back home with some doses of liquid charcoal for Lynsey to squirt into her throat to prevent further absorption of anything left in her tummy.
