A pet parrot accidentally poisoned three dogs by mimicking
their owner’s voice and feeding them grapes, which is poisonous to canines.
Grapes contain a substance which can cause acute renal failure in dogs, and can
quickly kill them.
一只宠物鹦鹉使三只小狗意外中毒，它模仿主人的声音引来小狗并喂它们吃了会使其中毒的葡萄。葡萄中含有一种会导致狗严重肾衰竭的物质，并很容易快速致死。
The parrot threw the fruit to the dogs while Mrs. Finch was out with her
family for the afternoon. When she arrived home, the three dogs had already
become unwell. Mrs. Finch noticed a bunch of grapes was missing from the fruit
bowl and, realising what had happened, quickly rushed all three dogs to Portland
Vets.
鹦鹉在主人Finch夫人一家午后出门时把水果扔给狗吃。当主人回到家时，小狗已经开始不对劲。当Finch夫人发现一串葡萄从果盘中消失了以后就明白事情是怎么回事了，于是她迅速带着三只小狗赶往波特兰宠物医院。
Mrs. Finch, a housewife, said: ’Peaches flies freely around the house but
returns to her cage when I’m not home. She’s a fantastic mimic and she must have
called each dog over by name to be fed and then dropped the grapes in front of
them from her cage.’
家庭主妇Finch夫人说：“Peaches平时在家里随便飞但我不在家时她会回到自己的笼子里去。她很擅长模仿，所以她一定是喊着每只狗的名字把它们引过来吃东西然后又从笼子里把葡萄丢到它们面前。”

’It was a worrying time while they were being treated but I’m so grateful
to the team at Portland Vets and it’s great to have them safely home. ’Grapes
are now banned from the house.’
“三只狗接受治疗时我十分担心，但是好在最后它们平安回家了，我非常感谢波特兰宠物医院的医疗团队。从今以后家里禁止再买葡萄。”
Vet Anna Garvey, who treated the dogs at Portland Vets, said: ’In cases of
poisoning, speed of response is really important so Mrs. Finch did the right
thing coming to us quickly. It meant we could flush out most of the toxins
before they had a chance to cause serious harm to the dogs.
给小狗提供治疗的波特兰宠物医院兽医Anna
Garvey说：“万一发生中毒，反应的速度是非常重要的，Finch夫人第一时间来我们这里是正确的选择。这意味着我们在毒液对狗造成严重伤害前可以把大部分有毒物质都冲出来。
We’re delighted that this story has had a happy ending and that all three
dogs are now home again. Peaches may need to learn to throw them less toxic
snacks in future.
这个故事结局是好的这很令人开心，现在三只小狗已经回家。或许Peaches以后需要学习怎么喂小狗吃无毒的零食了。 |
