I wonder what the 23 behind lurchers means , hours or minutes he's owned running dogs ?

Means well, thought I'd share this I was out with dog and family walking a golf course during lockdown.

Kids were throwing ball for dog and he was hot, well looking in one of many small lakes for fish the dog goes in for a cool off in the rushes takes a drink no big deal got him, home and quickly realised he had taken on poison of sorts that I believe was fertiliser that had washed off the green, he cleared it just before vet trip he was eating his fur   vet bed , grass and plants in order to sick it up.

So one to watch out for, a question for the experienced owner is there any thing worth keeping at home that would induce vomiting?

1 or 2 cc of peroxide down the goozle will induce vomiting in seconds.

My wife brushes her teeth with it with toothpaste to help whiten teeth.So have I.Ive used it to get rid of a lie bump on my tongue.Ive had several dogs to eat a large hunting sock over the years.The vets years ago told me to use peroxide.Its always worked without a problem. If you don't feel comfortable  with that I think active charcoal would be next best.

I used to live and work on a course in my early 20's...I lost a terrier suddenly through poisoning,thought it may of been someone I had upset had done it...but maybe she died after drinking from the ponds around the course?

Kind of makes sense

Thanks for that info I just looking I think there are a lot of different strengths of it so would imagine a real low percentage one for ingesting. 

Think the one I have would dissolve my my railings if I used it to brush me teeth

Well DC it was all I could come up with as to what he had and those green keepers I was once told they use a type of fertiliser that kills the worms, in order to stop the moles from destroying the putting green.

If true must be some strong shit.

This time of year Blue/Green algae blooms are common. As these are surface blooms the wind will take them into the wind side banks, This stuff is poisonous to both dogs and humans. Symptoms start with vomiting and the shits,
