Good catch...after only 3 days.
You are right.
man I have gone over a week with almost nothing...it’s not fun but can be done fairly easy unless one is diabetic etc
literally a week with bilge water..one row of saltines and 2 cans of LeSeur baby green peas with those little olives
and some peppermints and spearmints I had on board as an anti emetic
...and continued to survive for 3 more months. On what? It certainly wasn't the dog..........
I think the guy panicked, jumped the gun and foolishly killed the dog.......
Heard a story a while back about a couple that went for a drive somewhere in the Pacific NW (forest road near Mt. St. Helens), got stuck in the snow.
Both diabetic, had no food with them to speak of.
At the end of the week, they were both in reasonably good shape; didn't have any insulin, but since they were both living off of body fat, they didn't need it.
