My people always take my anti poison injection kit with us when I go out on walks, but if for any reason any of my canine friends were to be poisoned and a kit was not available it is very important to act very fast.......you may not have the time to get to a vet, as I said before some poisons (like the type laid down here in Greece by morons) would kill me in 5-10 minutes!
Poisons act in different ways, but here in Greece the stuff put down results in frothing at the mouth, loss of balance, massive convulsions and loss of bladder & bowel control.
It is absolutely vital to make me vomit (except of course in the case of corrosive poisons) . Salt water "may" work, but far better would be a mixture of plain old household mustard! (yuk).....Squirty type ready made is available in most grocery stores, and there may be one much nearer than the vets surgery....
Another option is a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide, again that pharmacy may be nearer than a vet, one way or another you have to get my canine friends to swallow it..................
Of course you still need to get to the vet, but this action may just save a canine life.
