Symptoms of Dog poisoning

The symptoms of dog poisoning generally include lethargy, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, foaming at the mouth, rapid breathing, eye tremor, unstable walking, seizures, and sometimes bleeding from the mouth, rectum, or urine. Some dogs may also exhibit aggressive or depressed behavior. In severe cases, the dog may experience shock or even death. When a dog shows symptoms of poisoning, it is recommended that the owner take the dog to a pet hospital immediately to determine the specific toxicity and choose the appropriate antidote. If necessary, vomiting or gastric washing may be performed.

There are many types of toxic substances, and the symptoms of poisoning caused by different toxic substances vary greatly. Some common types include:
