Husky (Detailed Introduction)

        Removing internal and external parasites is something dog owners should do regularly, but it should be noted that external deworming medicine generally has mild toxicity. If a dog licks it, it may cause symptoms such as vomiting. Therefore, when applying external deworming medicine, it must be applied where dogs cannot lick it, usually on the neck area. But what if a dog accidentally licks the deworming medicine?

        Generally, if a dog accidentally licks deworming medicine, there may be mild poisoning symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea. If the owner is worried, they can take the dog to the hospital for examination and receive detoxification injections or IV treatment. To prevent dogs from licking deworming medicine, we can put an Elizabeth collar on the dog for a certain period after applying the medicine. If the collar is too loose, tape can be used to prevent the dog from removing it. This method effectively prevents dogs from licking their bodies and reduces the risk of poisoning. Of course, using a muzzle is also an option. When it's time to eat, the owner can watch closely and put the muzzle back on after the dog finishes eating.

        If a dog accidentally licks deworming medicine, observe it for a period. If there are no obvious reactions, the owner need not worry too much. However, if clear poisoning symptoms appear, the dog should be taken to the hospital promptly for treatment.
