Hi sir, initially pet may not show signs of anticoagulant poisoning..It takes 1 to 2 days for Vit K1 and clotting factors in the body to be used up and next few days before signs of poisoning occur due to blood loss..Clinical signs include weakness, depression, increased respiration rate, pale gums, gastrointestinal signs etc...If an anticoagulant rodenticide ingestion occurred within few hours of treatment, the vet may induce vomiting..
Dr. Soundarya T C
For anticoagulant rodenticide treatment includes Vit K, IV fluids, additional supportive care, GI support, antiemetics to reduce vomiting... The active ingredient in the bait packaging could be Zinc or Aluminium phosphide rodenticide or cholecalciferol/ bromethalin..Treatment would be given accordingly...Kindly visit a vet or schedule an appointment with vet for home visit.. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in rat poisoning in dogs..

Seeing this inflamed/swollen area in my pup since a couple days, applied ice to reduce inflammation and it works for a while and seems to give him relief. But it's bleeding a little bit, I noticed this morning when I saw blood on his paw. I could see a slight cut mark yesterday, can't see it today. Any suggestions on what should I do?1 comments•353 views

Hey!
I am looking to find puppy friends for my 3 year old pupper. Preferably pups or short dogs as his strength can’t compete with bigger dogs.
