Barking Up The Wrong Tree

Dog Saved By Viagra

A springer spaniel named Bentley has been saved with Viagra.  The dog was suffering from lungworm, which was blocking his pulmonary arteries and causing his heart to fail.  This can be treated in humans with Viagra and so Bentley’s quick thinking vet, Ben Harris, gave Viagra to Bentley and it saved his life.

Luckily, Bentley has suffered no embarrassing side effects and having been neutered at a young age has no sex drive.

The thing is, his owner David Roach, will need to give Viagra to Bentley for the rest of his life if he is to live a normal, healthy life.  I can just imagine the chemist’s face when Mr Roach tries to explain that the Viagra is not for him but for his dog!
