My dog walked on floor cleaner. Is he safe? What should I do?

Most common household cleaners are safe when diluted according to the instructions. For example, properly diluted PineSol - if Lucy drank straight from the mop bucket, she would likely have vomiting and diarrhea, but it is unlikely to be fatal. So if you keep her out of the mop bucket and attempt to keep her away from the floors until they are dry, you should be fine!

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Axle. I recommend bathing his feet with Dawn dish soap. This should remove any residue from the dryer sheet. If he licked his feet or is not acting right, then I recommend following up with a veterinarian today. I hope this information helps!

You aren't a terrible person! We all make mistakes :-) I would make sure to wash Tim's foot thoroughly with dawn dish soap and warm water to get any trace of the paint stripper off his foot. You do not want him ingesting it by licking at his food. Get his foot a long soak and a full scrub to make sure all of the paint stripper is gone.

Some substances can be difficult to remove from paw pads. Try soaking Lucy's paw in diluted original blue Dawn dish soap to see if there is foreign material that can be dislodged. Please be sure to thoroughly rinse her foot afterwards.

That is just terrible! As far as I'm aware, there is no dog poison that will soak into their feet and kill them. Washing Noir's feet is a good idea, and to be safe, I'd take her into the vet to have her checked out. Best of luck.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Benson. Wash off his paws now using Dawn dish soap and warm water. If there was to be a problem, it would typically show up within 2-12 hours after exposure. If you see depression, weakness, incoordination, muscle tremors, salivation, vomiting, a skin rash, or collapse, get him into a vet immediately. I'd monitor him for the time period I mentioned above, but after that time period passes and if there are no signs, he should be ok. I hope this helps!

You may try washing the paw once a day for the next 3 days. You must prevent Charliegh from licking the foot (she needs to wear and elizabethan collar at all times). Keep the foot clean and dry. No walks, running or jumping until it is completely healed . If she is not significantly improved in 3 days, or if she gets worse at any point, have her examined by the veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
