PREVENT
Posted February 7, 2019
Our four-footed family members can get sick, too. Sometimes, unintentionally, the products we use to keep us healthy or maintain our homes and yards can be toxic to our pets. With the help of the Pet Poison Helpline, we’ve put together lists of the most common household poisons for dogs and cats.

Symptoms of a toxic reaction depend on whether it's a dog or cat that has been exposed and the type of exposure. Some common symptoms include drooling, vomiting, wobbliness and tremors, breathing problems, low heart rate, low body temperature and liver failure. If you're concerned your pet has been exposed to a harmful product, call your vet or the Pet Poison Helpline as soon as possible.
