Immediate Actions:
- Contact your veterinarian immediately: Inform them of the type and quantity of onions or chives ingested, as well as the dog’s size, breed, and any symptoms.
- Remove any remaining onions or chives: Check the dog’s mouth and surrounding area for any remaining plant material and remove it.

Treatment:
- Medical examination: The veterinarian will examine the dog and assess the severity of the poisoning.

- Supportive therapy: The veterinarian may provide intravenous fluids, anti-nausea medication, and pain relievers to support the dog’s health.
- Oxygen therapy: If the dog is experiencing respiratory distress, oxygen therapy may be required.
- Blood transfusion: In severe cases, a blood transfusion may be necessary to replace damaged red blood cells.

The prognosis depends on the amount of onion or chive ingested and the dog’s overall health. With early detection and treatment, the dog may recover fully. However, severe poisoning can be life-threatening.
Prevention:
- Keep onions, chives, and other toxic plants out of reach of dogs.
- Supervise dogs closely when they are outside and prevent them from eating any unfamiliar plants.
- If you suspect your dog has ingested a toxic plant, contact your veterinarian immediately.
