Welcome to Flabby Labby
This site has now become Moose's Memorial and will also serve
as a permanent Public Service
Announcement.
Moose died as a result of being exposed to toxic Chlorophenoxy pesticides
by an UNAUTHORIZED visit to my house from Chemlawn. Moose then died a slow,
painful death four months later, from liver, kidney and neurological
failure.
TruGreen Chemlawn is an arrogant, negligent and socially irresponsible
company with horrible business practices.
Jump into the Chemlawn Section here.
I will not let this situation slip away into obscurity. The public needs
to hear this story. If it can happen to us, it can happen to you.
The entire system is broken! From Trugreen Chemlawn, to the wealthy and
vast Chemical Company Lobbyists, to the
EPA, the
MDA, and lastly,
Veterinarians. Sloppy, inefficient, apathetic people from the top down,
subverting the truth !
Our family has suffered a great loss, and we will never get back our beloved
Moose. BUT the dangers that killed Moose --still exist and affect EVERYBODY
else.
If commonly applied pesticides can kill a healthy 75 lb dog, they can certainly
kill a 40 lb child.
The things you will learn from our experience should shock and infuriate
you! Nothing ever seems to get accomplished in this world until somebody
gets angry. Well, Hell hath no fury like an ANGRY mother with heartbroken
children.
Don't leave this site without meeting Moose!
Let's remember the best part of this website, Moose!
Moose was an extraordinary dog. He was a highly intelligent purebred
yellow Labrador Retriever. Moose accurately understood every situation around
him. His command of understanding the English language was superior. We feel
like we've lost a human member of our family. Our house feels so empty without
his vivacious spirit running around.
See Moose's
photos,
his videos
and read funny
stories of a spectacular life, cut short, but well lived.
We had a saying in our house:
"If you had to be a dog, you'd wanna be Moose!"
Moose displayed all the best aspects of his species. He lived in the moment
and with total joy and selfless love for the human hearts he owned.
That's I will remember him and that's how I want him to be
remembered. (See Why
have Dogs?)
See the Condolence cards
and emails from friends, family, neighbors and the doctors and staff
who knew Moose.
Please read our story and sign the
guestbook if you are moved to.
