Dr. Bell's

[15444]

Anybody know if there is somewhere you can still buy Dr. Bell's Veterinary Medical Wonder? Have a really old bottle of it that gets used every once in a while, and eventually going to need another bottle.

My father says he saw a bottle of it in Manstien's Tack Shop in Brandon a number of years ago, but hasn't seen any since.

I haven't seen it anywhere for years. Didn't it have arsenic in it or something equally as lethal ??? I have a Vet friend that laughs about the folks that used to place a lot of faith in Dr. bells, but I can remember the neighbours treating calves with it when they had colic and it worked wonders.

Did you mean Mansfields western shop?

MR, yeah, Mansfield's....couldn't quite remember the name.

emrald, lots of vets don't give it much credit, but it always seemed to save the day at our place when everything else had been tried and the animal was almost dead. My father is one of those people who have a lot of faith in Dr. Bell's. The label on our bottle is worn off, but I suspect it had some pretty lethal stuff as it affects nerves and tissues and could kill a person.
