I'm not sure about this since I haven't discussed it with our vet but I've been giving our dogs activated charcoal when they've eaten something poisonous... it works as an adsorbent for many toxins. This week I gave it to our Jack russel mix who had eaten something... only he will know what... it could have been a spider or something... I have no clue:ashamed:. We took him to the vet and he got a shot and some powder for his water but I didn't see any real improvement until I gave him the activated charcoal. I don't know exactly how it works but I always kept it back in Sweden for my dog in case a snake would bite him and I got it now for my Jack Russel. Figured it's good to have if there is an incident of some kind...

Glad to hear Cato is doing good:)

So good to hear! I'm so glad your baby is going to be okay!!

Boy the hotline has gone way up, I was unhappy about $40 when I called couple of years ago. But it would have been more probably to bring her to the vet, she chewed up a bottle of white out.

I'm glad the human poison control hotline doesn't charge anything!
