Just a friendly reminder that if you walk your dogs in rural areas to not let your dogs on people's properties and to watch them closely.
⚠️ Strychnine Toxicity ⚠️
Many of you have likely seen the alerts online about the Alberta Pest Management Regulatory Agency permitting the use of strychnine to control gophers.
Please read the official release from the Alberta Veterinary Medical Association. Please be aware that if you are using this poison to control gopher population on your property, it is important to pick up the carcasses so that dogs, cats and wildlife do not ingest the poison.
If you are concerned that your pet may be suffering from strychnine toxicosis, it is an emergency and you should contact your veterinarian ASAP.
