How to Handle a Poisoning Emergency with Your Dog

Handling a Poisoning Emergency with Your Dog

Handling a poisoning emergency with your dog requires quick and decisive action. If you suspect your dog has ingested something toxic, contact your veterinarian or an emergency pet poison hotline immediately. While waiting for help, try to determine what your dog ingested, how much, and when. Keep any packaging or remnants of the substance for identification. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed by a professional, as some substances can cause more harm when brought back up. Keep your dog calm and monitor their symptoms. If you must go to the vet, bring a sample of the substance if possible. Prevention is key; keep all potentially toxic substances out of reach of your dog.
