If your dog ingests amaryllis flowers or leaves, take them to the vet immediately.
Amaryllis is a plant that is toxic to dogs. The entire plant, including bulbs, leaves, flowers, and stems, contains a toxic compound called lycorine, which can cause symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and convulsions.
If your dog has eaten amaryllis, you should take him to the vet right away, especially if he shows any of the following symptoms:
- nausea, vomiting
- diarrhea
- Anorexia
- I'm not feeling well
- It's hard to breathe
- convulsions
At the veterinary hospital, medications such as laxatives, anti-nausea drugs, and antibiotics will be administered depending on the symptoms. In severe cases, treatment such as intravenous drips or blood transfusions may be required.
Here's what to do if your dog eats amaryllis.
- Remove amaryllis from your dog as much as possible.
- Observe your dog carefully.
- If you notice any symptoms, take your pet to the vet immediately.
