What is Trifolium?
Trifolium, commonly known as clover, is a type of legume that contains isoflavones and saponins. While these compounds are generally not considered toxic to dogs, they can cause some adverse effects in certain circumstances.
Symptoms of Trifolium Ingestion:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Flatulence
- Lethargy
Treatment:
1. Remove Access to Trifolium:
- Prevent the dog from accessing any more clover plants.
2. Monitor Your Dog:
- Observe your dog for any signs of symptoms listed above.
- If any symptoms appear, contact your veterinarian immediately.
3. Induce Vomiting (if within 1-2 hours of ingestion):
- If your dog ingested a large amount of clover and is showing symptoms, induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide (3% solution).
- Give 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight, and repeat every 15 minutes until vomiting occurs.
4. Activated Charcoal:
- Activated charcoal can help absorb the isoflavones and saponins in the clover.
- Administer 1 gram per pound of body weight, mixed with water.
5. Provide Fluids:
- Encourage your dog to drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration.
- If your dog refuses to drink on its own, you may need to syringe-feed it water.
6. Veterinary Care:
- If your dog’s symptoms are severe or persistent, seek veterinary care immediately.
- Your veterinarian may provide further treatment, such as:
- Anti-nausea medication
- Anti-diarrheal medication
- Pain medication
- Intravenous fluids
Prevention:
- Keep your dog away from clover plants when possible.
- Supervise your dog during walks or playtime in areas where clover is present.
Important Note:
- The severity of the adverse effects depends on the amount of clover ingested and the individual dog’s sensitivity.
- If you have any concerns or questions about trifolium ingestion, always consult with your veterinarian.
