"Toby is an amazing 11 year old Jack Russel Terrier who had a bad encounter with a Bufo toad, a resident toad in Florida known for his potent toxin that affects the neurologic system. Toby presented to us seizing and rapidly progressed to a coma, with possible evidence of brain injury. He was treated and attended to around the clock by technicians and doctors by his side at all times. He woke up from his coma and few days later, he was bright and alert, eating and drinking normally again!
He came back for his recheck examination and is doing wonderful! He is back to being normal at home according to his parents; and he even gave us kisses when he was in the back for his examination. Toby is an amazing little boy that touched our hearts and we are so happy to have been able to help him recover from this unfortunate encounter!"
