There are so many ways that your pet can be poisoned. Poisons can be ingested (eaten or drank), absorbed through the skin, or inhaled. While some poisons act immediately, some take days for symptoms to appear which can make a diagnosis difficult because the symptoms of poisoning are similar to other medical problems.
When signs like tremors or seizures begin to show your main objective is to get your dog to a veterinarian as quickly as possible. Try to bring with you a sample of the vomit or better yet the poison in its original container.
If for any reason you suspect your pet has been poisoned the sooner you seek veterinary treatment the better your pet's chances for survival, hopefully with no long term side effects or organ damage.
