Salt water cannot detoxify. If you feed salt water in large quantities, it may also lead to salt poisoning of dogs. Generally, dogs consume poisons by taking oral or skin contact. If it is taken orally, it should be vomiting at the first time. If it is discovered that it is relatively late, it is of little significance to induce vomiting and needs to be sent to the hospital for symptomatic treatment. If it is skin contact, you should rinse the skin with a lot of clean water as soon as possible to minimize the absorption of poisons. Of course, after a dog is poisoned, the best way to seek medical treatment in time to avoid delaying the best treatment time.
First aid measures after dogs are poisoned
1. Within 30 minutes after the dog eats toxic food, you can try to urgently pour water on the dog to induce vomiting. Commonly used emetic agents include sodium carbonate, salt and mustard.
2. If the dog recovers from waking up, you can first give the dog a lot of soda or concentrated warm salt water.
3. If the vomiting cannot be induced or the effect after inducing vomiting is not good, you need to use gastric lavage. Rinse repeatedly according to the amount of 5 to 10 ml per kilogram of body weight, and often use warm salt water, warm boiled water, strong tea water, etc.
4. Adsorbents such as activated carbon can be used to adsorb the poison on the surface of the drug, but this is ineffective for cyanide poisoning.
5. You can try to give your dog laxatives to promote the excretion of toxic substances in the gastrointestinal intestines.
6. If a dog eats poison for more than 4 hours, and most poisons have entered the duodenum at this time, in order to prevent bacteria in the intestine from continuing to grow and reproduce, oral broad-spectrum antibiotics, such as gentamicin, chloramphenicol or tetracycline, etc. are required.
7. To prevent shock from dogs, corticosteroids, or drugs such as prednisone and prednisolone can be used.
Summary: If a dog is poisoned, the above first aid measures can be used as a first aid reference, but it is still recommended that the owner take the dog to the hospital in time and have a professional doctor perform the detoxification according to the specific situation of the dog's poisoning.
