Here's why immediate action is important:
* Toxicity: Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) can be toxic to dogs, especially in large quantities. The severity of the poisoning depends on the amount ingested.
* Symptoms: Symptoms of Epsom salt poisoning in dogs can include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, weakness, loss of appetite, tremors, and even kidney damage.
* Emergency Care: Your vet may recommend inducing vomiting, administering activated charcoal, or providing supportive care to manage the symptoms.
Please don't hesitate to seek professional help from a veterinarian. They are the best resource for ensuring your dog's safety and well-being.
