We swear by Ez-Clean at the shop. We use it daily on dog messes, skunked dogs or even ourselves on a crazy day 🤣 and as you can see in the picture, we also use it at home for things like sports equipment! We always have it in stock if you are needing a safe way to clean and remove odors!

There have been recent reports of strychnine in our area—let’s work together as a community to keep our pets safe and sound. At Pioneer Veterinary Services, your pets are like family to us, and we care deeply about their health and safety.
Strychnine is a highly toxic poison sometimes found in rodent baits and can be deadly to dogs, cats, and wildlife if ingested-even in very small amounts.

Signs of Strychnine Poisoning:
- Severe muscle stiffness or rigidity
- Uncontrollable seizures (often triggered by sound or touch)
- Difficulty breathing
- Hyper-sensitivity (startles easily)
- Rigid limbs, arched back (“sawhorse stance”)
- Rapid deteriora

Strychnine is a highly toxic poison sometimes found in rodent baits and can be deadly to dogs, cats, and wildlife if ingested-even in very small amounts.

Signs of Strychnine Poisoning:
- Severe muscle stiffness or rigidity
- Uncontrollable seizures (often triggered by sound or touch)
- Difficulty breathing
- Hyper-sensitivity (startles easily)
- Rigid limbs, arched back (“sawhorse stance”)
- Rapid deterioration—this is a medical emergency
Symptoms can appear quickly, often within 10 minutes to 2 hours after ingestion.

What To Do Immediately:
- DO NOT wait for symptoms to worsen
- DO NOT try to induce vomiting (this can trigger severe seizures)
- Keep your pet in a quiet, dark environment to reduce stimulation
- Seek emergency veterinary care immediately

Prevention Tips:
- Avoid areas where rodent poison may be present
- Keep pets on a leash during walks
- Secure all pest control products safely out of reach
- Be cautious in rural or unfamiliar areas

Strychnine poisoning progresses rapidly and can be fatal without urgent treatment. Quick action can save your pet’s life.

📞 & If you suspect poisoning, contact your Pioneer Veterinary Clinic as soon as possible.
