Is going camping dangerous? I’ve been doing it for 40 years, and it hasn’t killed me yet but that doesn’t mean it’s always smooth sailing. Here’s everything major that’s gone wrong on one of my trips. Hopefully my experiences can help you avoid something similar.
My Puppy Ate a Toad!
What happened: My wife and I saw Bowie, our middle child, playing with something in the grass. I went over to make sure it wasn’t a rattlesnake, and came back to inform my wife it was just a frog or toad. “Don’t let him eat that!” she shouted. It was almost too late I was able to pry his jaws open and pull it out of his throat. A few minutes later, he started foaming from the mouth and become more and more lethargic as the hours passed.
