Immediate Actions:
- Call your veterinarian or veterinary emergency clinic immediately. They will provide the most accurate and up-to-date guidance based on your dog’s specific situation.
- Induce vomiting (if recommended by your veterinarian): Administer hydrogen peroxide (3%) orally at a dose of 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight. Repeat every 5-10 minutes until vomiting occurs.
- Monitor your dog closely: Watch for signs of distress, such as vomiting, diarrhea, trouble breathing, or seizures.
Important Information:
- Laurel cherries contain cyanogenic glycosides, which release cyanide when ingested. Cyanide is highly toxic and can be fatal if not treated promptly.
- The toxicity of Laurel cherries varies depending on the amount consumed and the weight of the dog.
- Signs of cyanide poisoning typically appear within 60-90 minutes of ingestion.
- Treatment for cyanide poisoning may include intravenous fluids, oxygen therapy, and antidotes.
Do NOT Do:
- Do not wait to see if your dog exhibits symptoms before seeking veterinary attention.
- Do not give your dog activated charcoal or milk, as these may interfere with the absorption of antidotes.
- Do not induce vomiting unless specifically instructed by your veterinarian.
Additional Notes:
- If you cannot reach a veterinarian or emergency clinic, contact the Animal Poison Control Center (ASPCA) at 1-888-426-4435 for assistance.
- Keep your dog away from any further exposure to Laurel cherries or other toxic plants.
- Be prepared to provide your veterinarian with as much information as possible, including the type of plant ingested, the amount consumed, and the time of ingestion.
