Symptoms of Galtonia Poisoning in Dogs:

  • Gastrointestinal symptoms: vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain
  • Neurological symptoms: tremors, seizures, incoordination
  • Cardiac symptoms: arrhythmias, increased heart rate
  • Respiratory symptoms: difficulty breathing

Steps to Take if Your Dog Ate Galtonia:

1. Induce Vomiting (if ingested within 2 hours):

  • Give 1 hydrogen peroxide solution (3%) at a dose of 1ml per pound of body weight.
  • Do not induce vomiting if the dog is having seizures or is unconscious.

2. Flush the Mouth:

  • Use a hose or water bottle to rinse the dog's mouth thoroughly.

3. Contact Your Veterinarian Immediately:

  • Call your veterinarian and explain the situation.
  • They may recommend activated charcoal to absorb the toxin, or they may induce vomiting if you haven't already done so.

4. Monitor Your Dog Closely:

  • Watch for any symptoms of poisoning, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or tremors.
  • If symptoms appear or worsen, seek veterinary attention immediately.

5. Keep the Dog Warm and Quiet:

  • The toxin can affect the dog's body temperature, so provide a warm and comfortable place.
  • Keep the dog calm and avoid any sudden movements.

6. Do Not Give Home Remedies:

  • Do not give any over-the-counter remedies, such as milk or bread, as these may worsen the poisoning.

Note:

  • Galtonia poisoning can be serious and even fatal if not treated promptly.
  • The prognosis depends on the amount of toxin ingested and the severity of the symptoms.
  • If you suspect your dog has ingested Galtonia, it is crucial to seek veterinary attention immediately.
