Iberis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, which includes cabbage, broccoli, and turnips. Some species of Iberis are toxic to dogs, and can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. If your dog has eaten an Iberis plant, it is important to contact your veterinarian immediately.
Symptoms of Iberis poisoning in dogs can include:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Lethargy
- Weakness
- Tremors
- Seizures
- Coma
Treatment for Iberis poisoning in dogs will depend on the severity of the symptoms. Your veterinarian may recommend inducing vomiting or administering activated charcoal to absorb the toxins. In severe cases, your dog may need to be hospitalized for supportive care, such as intravenous fluids and anti-nausea medication.
Prevention is the best way to protect your dog from Iberis poisoning. If you have Iberis plants in your garden, be sure to keep them out of reach of your dog. You can also teach your dog to avoid eating plants by rewarding them with treats when they leave plants alone.
