Immediate Actions:
- Remain calm: Panic can lead to mistakes.
- Contact your veterinarian immediately: They can provide professional advice and guidance.
- Identify the specific type of lily: Different lily species have varying levels of toxicity. If possible, take a picture of the plant or petals that the dog ingested and send it to your veterinarian.
- Induce vomiting: If you are instructed to do so by your veterinarian, induce vomiting by giving your dog 2-3 tablespoons of 3% hydrogen peroxide per 10-15 pounds of body weight. Repeat every 10-15 minutes until the dog vomits. Caution: Do not induce vomiting if the dog is unconscious, has seizures, or is vomiting repeatedly.
Potential Symptoms:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Tremors
- Seizures
- Rapid heartbeat
- Difficulty breathing
Emergency Care:
- If your veterinarian is unavailable, take your dog to the nearest emergency veterinary clinic.
- Your dog may need the following:
- Activated charcoal to absorb the toxin
- Intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration
- Anti-nausea medication to stop vomiting
- Anticonvulsants to control seizures
- Cardiac monitoring to monitor the heart rate
Long-Term Considerations:
- Kidney damage: Tropical water lilies contain nephrotoxins that can damage the kidneys.
- Muscle damage: If the dog develops severe muscle tremors, it may indicate muscle damage.
- Recovery time: The recovery time will depend on the severity of the ingestion. Some dogs may recover within a few days, while others may require weeks or even months of treatment.
Prevention:
- Keep tropical water lilies and other toxic plants out of reach of your pets.
- Supervise your dog when they are around plants.
- Learn to identify common poisonous plants in your area.
