If your dog ingests redflower flowers or leaves, please visit a veterinarian immediately.
Gekkoku is a perennial plant of the Liliaceae family that blooms from autumn to winter in Japan. The flowers and leaves contain alkaloids that are toxic to dogs. Symptoms of poisoning include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, difficulty breathing, convulsions, and impaired consciousness.
If you take your pet to a veterinary hospital immediately after symptoms of poisoning appear, the toxin can be removed from the animal’s body through emetic treatment and gastric lavage. However, if the symptoms of poisoning become severe, it may be life-threatening.
Also, even if you only eat a small amount, you should not let your guard down. Please carefully monitor your dog for any changes in his physical condition.
The specific solutions are as follows.
- If your dog has eaten redflower flowers or leaves, call the veterinary hospital immediately.
- Observe your dog’s condition as directed by your veterinary clinic.
- If your dog is vomiting or has diarrhea, keep him hydrated.
- If your dog’s condition suddenly changes, take him to the vet immediately.
When you visit a veterinary hospital, bring cedar flowers and leaves with you to help with diagnosis and treatment.
Also, be careful not to let your dog eat red pepper while walking. Flowers and leaves of Red Redflower can be seen in a variety of places, including gardens, parks, and riverbeds.
