Webinar Description:
Dog toxicity remains one of the most frequent and time-sensitive emergencies seen in veterinary medicine. However, many traditional treatment methods—such as inducing vomiting, gastric lavage, and in-clinic administration of activated charcoal—can be delayed and less effective when every minute counts.

This webinar explores how early intervention at home, specifically with advanced activated charcoal formulations, can significantly improve outcomes in dog toxicity cases. By equipping pet owners with the tools and guidance to begin decontamination before arriving at the clinic, veterinarians can bridge the critical gap between exposure and professional treatment.

Drawing parallels to emergency interventions in human healthcare, such as EpiPens and Narcan, the session will present evidence supporting at-home detox strategies and highlight the limitations of outdated or ineffective methods. It also offers practical tips on how veterinarians can maintain clinical control while empowering clients to respond promptly in emergency situations.

What You'll Learn:

• The most common household toxins that pose risks for dog toxicity

• Why early response is crucial for toxin management

• How traditional decontamination methods compare in terms of effectiveness

• Potential dangers of using outdated at-home emetics like hydrogen peroxide

• Advantages of modern, pet-safe activated charcoal designed for home use

• Clinical strategies for integrating at-home care into your emergency protocols
