Dog Rat Poison

"Dog rat poison must be treated immediately to avoid internal bleeding. Do not wait for symptoms to contact an emergency veterinary hospital or your veterinarian."




If your dog ate rat poison it can be as toxic to dogs as it is to rats or mice. Dogs are attracted to rat poison because of the taste. If you believe your dog has eaten a rat or mouse, or ingested rat poison directly, DO NOT wait for symptoms and act right away.

Rat poison can cause fatal internal bleeding.

1. Call Your Veterinarian - Treatment needs to be administered right away. If you can't reach your vet call the ASPCA Dog Poison Center 24 hours a day at (888) 426-4435.

2. Rush Your Dog to An Emergency Center for Treatment
