If you suspect that your dog has eaten Dorstenia, it’s important to seek veterinary attention immediately.
Symptoms of Dorstenia Poisoning in Dogs
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Lethargy
- Seizures
- Difficulty breathing
- Liver failure
First Aid Steps
1. Keep Your Dog Calm:
- Keep your dog quiet and calm. Avoid exercising or agitating them.
2. Contact Your Veterinarian Immediately:
- Call your veterinarian or the nearest emergency animal hospital and provide them with as much information as possible, including the type and amount of Dorstenia ingested, your dog’s age, weight, and symptoms.
3. Do Not Induce Vomiting:
- Do not attempt to induce vomiting in your dog. This can make the situation worse by further irritating the digestive system.
4. Bring a Sample of the Plant:
- If possible, bring a sample of the Dorstenia plant to the veterinarian for identification and to assess the severity of the poisoning.
Veterinary Treatment
- Your veterinarian will perform a physical exam and run tests, such as bloodwork and X-rays, to assess your dog’s condition.
- Depending on the severity of the poisoning, treatment may include:
- Activated charcoal to absorb toxins
- Intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration
- Anti-nausea medication to control vomiting
- Antibiotics to prevent infection
- Oxygen therapy to assist with breathing
- Liver protectants
Prognosis
- The prognosis for dogs who have eaten Dorstenia depends on the amount ingested, the dog’s size, and the time elapsed before treatment.
- Early intervention and aggressive treatment can improve the chances of survival.
Prevention
- Keep your dog away from Dorstenia plants, both indoors and outdoors.
- Fence off areas where Dorstenia grows or remove the plants from your property.
- Supervise your dog during walks and playtime to prevent them from ingesting poisonous plants.
