Dog eats chocolate hydrogen peroxide

How to fill a dog with hydrogen peroxide after eating chocolate
If a dog eats chocolate by mistake, it will be worrying. Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, which are very harmful to the dog's body and can cause vomiting, diarrhea, heart palpitations, convulsions, and even life-threatening.

In the past, when a dog eats chocolate, it is often used to fill a dog with hydrogen peroxide as an emergency. Because hydrogen peroxide can induce vomiting, the dog can spit out the undigested chocolate in the stomach to reduce the absorption of poisons. The method is as follows: According to the dog's weight, prepare an appropriate amount of hydrogen peroxide. Generally speaking, for every five kilograms of body weight, one teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide with a 3% concentration can be used. Slowly inject the hydrogen peroxide into the dog's mouth with a syringe or dropper, taking care not to make it choke. After filling, gently rub the dog's abdomen to help it vomit.

However, this method also has risks. Improper use of hydrogen peroxide may cause burns to the dog's mouth and esophagus, and may also cause serious complications such as stomach distension and pneumothorax. And not all dogs are suitable for this method of inducing vomiting. If the dog has symptoms such as convulsions and coma, do not rush to take hydrogen peroxide.

At present, after the dog eats chocolate, the owner should take the dog to the doctor immediately. The veterinarian will take appropriate treatment methods according to the specific condition of the dog, or induce vomiting, or gastric lavage, or drug detoxification, to ensure the dog's health.

In short, dog chocolate is urgent, and owners need to be careful not to use remedies without authorization. They should seek the help of a professional veterinarian as soon as possible to protect the dog's life and safety.
