If your dog has eaten an echium, you should contact your veterinarian immediately. Echium is a genus of flowering plants that includes many species that are toxic to dogs. The toxins in echium can cause a variety of symptoms, including vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and respiratory distress. In severe cases, echium poisoning can be fatal.
If you are unable to contact your veterinarian immediately, you can try to induce vomiting in your dog by giving them a solution of 3% hydrogen peroxide. You can also give your dog activated charcoal to help absorb the toxins.
It is important to keep your dog away from echium plants and to contact your veterinarian immediately if you suspect that your dog has eaten any part of an echium plant.
