What to do if your dog is poisoned and starts shaking uncontrollably?

Do not delay, take him to your veterinarian or to the nearest veterinary ER. If he has been poisoned, he may need supportive care. Blood work may be able to determine if it is a metabolic issue as opposed to poison, but there is no way to test for specific poisons.

These are concerning signs of a possible intoxication. Immediate check up is required to treat the signs and reduce as much as possible absorption. Metaldehyde (used in snail poison) and intoxication from a long list of other substances can cause these signs. I am afraid it is impossible to be more specific than that.

The amount of theobromine your pet has been exposed to is relatively low but he is showing some worrying signs of toxicity, for that reason i strongly recommend that you take him to the vet ASAP just in case he needs supportive treatment to go through this phase of potential toxicity.

I’m assuming your dogs are having muscle tremors or fasciculations. If so there is not much to do at home - a veterinarian would treat with muscle relaxants, IV fluids and potentially medication to control seizures. You may need to travel to get care for your dogs. If the muscle tremors are relatively mild there may not be lasting side effects, but if they are severe then muscle damage, kidney failure or even brain damage is possible.

I am so sorry that your pet ate moldy food. Mycotoxicosis can be mild or more severe depending on the amount ingested. In severe cases it can even lead to death. Severe signs can occur with dosages of 0.175 mg/kg PO. Death can occur with ingestion of 0.5 mg/kg PO. Early signs include restlessness, panting, hypersalivation, with or without vomiting. Mild to moderate muscle tremors develop and may progress to severe tremors, and/or seizures. I would highly recommend taking your pet to your local ER vet right away for detoxification, IV fluids, and supportive care to give her the best chance of survival.

I really hope your furry friend is able to make a full and speedy recovery! Best wishes and take care.

Oh dear! This sounds extremely serious - your dog may be having a seizure, or may have a serious illness or ingested something toxic. I'm afraid there is really nothing you can do at home for a problem this serious, so the best advice I can give you is to take your dog to the nearest veterinarian immediately. I would be concerned that he may die without immediate veterinary care.

That sounds serious! Even though yournone dog seems okay now I would recommend taking her to a vet right away - she may have had a seizure or have heart disease or low blood sugar. While there are toxins that can cause vomiting and toxins that can cause neurologic symptoms like loss of consciousness it is not very likely that someone is deliberately poisoning your dogs without your knowledge. I’d recommend seeing a veterinarian to have both dogs evaluated.
