DOGS POISONED WITH RAT POISON, STRYCHNINE OR ARSENIC. Symptoms.—.\li at once the dog seems in great pain; takes fits; slobbers at the mouth; the eyes are bulged out and blood- shot, and he keeps trembling all over. If the dog shows the above Bymptoms, and you have had poison around the place, or he has been anywhere that he could possibly get it, you may conclude he has been poisoned. Treatment.—The treatment must be quick. Give the dog an emetic to make him vomit; this is the only way youtcan save his life. The idea is to get him to throw up the poison out of his stomach before it gets absorbed into the blood. Give him one tablespoonful of salt dissolved in a half teacupful of luke warm water as a drench, or one teaspoonful of mustard dissolved in a half teacupful of luke warm water as a drench; either of the above will cause vomiting. But the best of all, if you have it, to make him vomit, is to give him from half a teaspoonful to a teaspoonful of sulphate of zinc dissolved in a half teacupful of luke warm water and give i*. hs a drench. If you can get him to Tomit soon enough it will generally save his life. FRACTURES OR BROKEN BONES IN DOGS.
