• Direct contact through the skin
• Oral ingestion – when a dog eats or licks a harmful substance
• Inhalation – when a dog breathes in toxic fumes or particles

Poisoning can occur when a dog ingests or inhales a toxic or poisonous substance. For example, they may step in paint or antifreeze while out for a walk and then lick their paws. Depending on the type of toxin ingested, dogs can show a reaction within minutes.
With other poisons like rodenticide, it can take several days for symptoms of poisoning to appear, he adds. Symptoms can vary with the amount of poison ingested and include the following:

• Vomiting
• Loss of appetite
• Excessive thirst or urination
• Diarrhea
• Bloody or discolored stool
• Bloody urine
• Lethargy or weakness
• Unsteady gait
• Seizures, tremors, or hyperactivity.

Always contact your veterinarian immediately if you have seen or suspect that your dog may have eaten, inhaled or had on the skin. They can tell you what steps need to be taken.
If possible, keep the packaging of the fabric to which your dog has been exposed at hand, so that you can provide them with important information as soon as possible. Fortunately, by acting quickly, it is often possible to ensure that the animals do not suffer any permanent consequences of poisoning.

With most poisonings, it is important to let your dog vomit as soon as possible after taking so that as much of the toxic substance as possible is removed from the body. In principle, vomiting is only useful in the first 4-6 hours after ingestion.
In household items, it is often chosen not to vomit the animal due to possible foaming due to vomiting or extra irritation of the esophagus.
After contact with the skin or eyes, the advice wash with a mild shampoo and water, then rinse well and dry.
Keep dogs away from other animals to avoid cross-contamination.
Also beware of your own health.

Activated charcoal (like Norit) can adsorb many toxins. When given orally, either as a paste, gel, or liquid, activated charcoal can adsorb or bind these substances before they get absorbed by your pet's gastrointestinal tract.
Then, it carries the toxic substances through the digestive system until your dog poops them out.

SALT:
Never use salt to get your animal vomiting!
This can cause salt poisoning, which in some cases can even be fatal.

MILK: Don't give your dog milk. Many pet owners feed their dog milk after a potential poisoning because they believe it will help neutralize the poison.
This is rarely helpful and dogs are generally lactose intolerant.
Don't give your pet milk unless a veterinary professional tells you to do so.

WATER: If your pet has ingested a poison, try to rinse or wipe out the mouth with a damp towel/flannel. Do not give your pet anything to eat or drink before speaking with a vet.

DRINKS IN GENERAL: Do not give a dog anything to drink before talking to a vet. Besides the fact that a liquid can dilute the poison, it can be absorbed more quickly into the blood. When a dog is so dazed by the poison, a dog can choke from drinking, as he cannot swallow properly.
