Dogs are active and curious. They can easily ingest something and become poisoned. If a dog accidentally ingests something, don’t be nervous. Maybe we can save ourselves from danger, so It is necessary for us to learn some knowledge about how to rescue dogs from poisoning!
Accidents can happen to puppies, playful adults and fidgety dogs poisoning. Common household medications, like aspirin tablets, may taste bitter, but are still ingested by some dogs. Keep all items that can cause poisoning out of your dog's reach. Symptoms of poisoning include vomiting, collapse, convulsions, and coma.
If the poison comes into play and the dog collapses, take him to the veterinarian right away with what he ate and instructions for its ingredients. Treatment is better if the veterinarian can quickly understand the type of poison ingested.
If you see your dog ingesting a potentially toxic substance, you should stop it, check the packaging for the substance, and contact your veterinarian immediately.
If possible, ask someone to help with restraint, open the dog's mouth, and give an emetic, or a small amount of salt water.
Precautions
Induce vomiting within an hour of the dog's ingestion; if the dog is still awake and agile, you can be sure that it has not been digested Corrosive or irritating items. Start by giving a generous amount of soda or concentrated warm salt water (a cup by a spoon). Immediately seek help from a veterinarian and bring vomit for laboratory analysis.
