testimonials
– Dr. Edward B.As a medical toxicologist, I have found for myself that Pet Poison Helpline has been a wonderful resource when any of my three dogs get into things they shouldn’t. For the same reasons we encourage the public and health care providers with human exposures to call a poison center to consult with the poisoning experts, I consult the veterinary poisoning experts at Pet Poison Helpline for assistance with my pets’ exposures.

testimonials
– Julie P.We wanted to thank you so much for all of your help for our dog, Saffie. She accidentally ate our daughter’s ADHD medication and got extremely ill. The emergency vet said if it hadn’t been for you, our dog would probably have died from being given a sedative that was contra-indicated for that particular medicine. Your help was invaluable to them! Thank you again so much! Saffie is doing much better and her prognosis is good.
