First Aid Kit for Dogs

Raleighsmom · 07-01-2009, 03:00 PM

After reading about Charlie Bears foot pad injury, and numerous other injuries over the course of the past 3 yrs., I thought it might benefit everyone if we all had a first aid kit specifically for our Doodles...I found this website on line and thought I'd share...I think I'll put together a kit, maybe in a big plastic container that would be immediately handy if I needed it..instead of scrambling around looking for stuff..I'll also bring it it the car when I take Raleigh to the Bark Park...just in case..because you never know....of course this doesn't replace a Vet or his advice, but it should be good in an emergency...

I'm also going to put a list of poisons and poisonous plants in the kit...along with the ASPCA Hotline:

I've used the hotline before when Raleigh ate a whole pack of gum..

The xylitol in the gum is exteremely hazardous!
I also had to cough up $60, but it was worth it...as soon as I got him to eat some yogurt with a tablespoon of Hydrogen peroxide in it, ...up it all came, and he was none the worse for wear!
