Sasanqua is a toxic plant for dogs containing saponins.
Saponins can cause gastrointestinal upset, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, depression, incoordination, weakness, tremors, and convulsions.
If your dog has eaten a sasanqua, you should:
- Contact your veterinarian immediately.
- Bring a sample of the plant with you to the veterinarian’s office.
- Monitor your dog for any symptoms of toxicity.
- If your dog is vomiting or having diarrhoea, keep it hydrated by offering small amounts of water frequently.
- Do not induce vomiting or give your dog any medication unless directed by your veterinarian.
