My dog just ate rat poison. What should I do right away?

[]

Answer

This is an extremely serious situation. Ingesting rat poison is a life-threatening emergency for dogs. The specific type of poison dictates the immediate effects and necessary treatment, but common rodenticides interfere with blood clotting. Symptoms may not appear for days, but damage is already being done. Do not wait for symptoms; immediate veterinary intervention is critical. This is an emergency - please take your pet to your nearest emergency veterinary clinic immediately.
