Hi there! It sounds like you’ve been through quite a stressful situation, and I’m glad you reached out for help. After contacting poison control, there are a few steps you can take to ensure your pet's continued safety and well-being.
First, monitor your pet closely for any signs of distress. Look out for vomiting, diarrhea, drooling, difficulty breathing, or changes in behavior such as lethargy or agitation. These symptoms can indicate a serious issue that requires immediate veterinary attention.
Providing your pet with a quiet and comfortable environment is vital. Offer small amounts of water frequently to keep them hydrated, especially if they’ve been vomiting or have diarrhea, but don’t force it if they’re not interested. For food, wait until they’ve regained their normal appetite and consult with your vet before resuming their regular diet.
If you haven’t already done so, make sure to safely dispose of the poisonous substance to prevent further exposure. Additionally, try to note down any details from your call with poison control, like the substance involved and any specific advice they gave.
If you notice any worrying symptoms or if your pet’s condition doesn’t improve as expected, it’s crucial to seek veterinary care right away. I encourage you to book a video consult with one of our veterinarians on Dial A Vet for personalized guidance tailored to your pet’s situation. We're here to support you and your furry friend!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
