If you witnessed or strongly suspect your pet ingested anything toxic, this is considered an \u201cORANGE\u201d \u2013 or urgent case \u2013 on our Fast Track Triage system. We recommend calling ASPCA Animal Poison Control at 888-426-4435 for help determining if your pet consumed a toxic amount and for guidance on what to do next. If veterinary care is advised, call your family veterinarian or local animal emergency hospital ahead of your arrival. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In honor of Pet Poison Prevention Week, we had the privilege to host a Facebook Live with <\/span><\/span>Dr. Renee Tourdot, a specialist who is board-certified in both toxicology and veterinary toxicology with <\/span><\/span>ASPCA\u2019s <\/span>Animal <\/span>Poison Control Center<\/span><\/span><\/a>. Dr. Tourdot covered common toxins for dogs and cats, and you can catch the replay here or read the summary below!<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A wide range of foods, plants, and household items can be toxic to dogs and cats. Dr. Tourdot highlighted several common toxins, but this is not an exhaustive list.
