Immediately, Tammi went home to grab her two other dogs Phoebe, an eight year old golden retriever poodle mix, and Bailey, a five year old beagle. Tests revealed they too had ingested the toxic substance.
Max and Phoebe couldn't be saved. Bailey remains at the clinic and continues to receive treatment.
As Tammi awaits word on Bailey's condition, she's left to wonder who would do such a thing.
"I feel like I've been hit by a train," she said. "I just want people to know this is happening. Tuesday after dinner.
An hour later, Max started to throw up. The vomiting got worse and worse and, soon, he couldn't walk.
"He continued to throw up food we didn't give him, pieces of cut up sausages we Stephen Gostkowski Jersey didn't feed him," Tammi said.
After the vet confirmed it was antifreeze poisoning, Phoebe and Bailey were also taken to the clinic, tested positive for the substance, and were quickly placed on treatment, she said.

Bailey continues to receive medical treatment and Tammi is optimistic her beloved beagle will recover.
