Drooling, vomiting, weakness, tremors, blood in urine.
If they ate it
Call your vet or ASPCA Animal Poison Control (888) 426-4435 now, with the product, the amount and your pet's weight. Do not make them vomit unless a vet tells you to.
Toxic for dogs means: do not give it; if they ate it, call your vet or a poison line.
