suspected amphetamine ingestion

[crazygirly]

My partner had friends round last night and i know they had amphetamine on them. They were in the kitchen sorting this stuff and what i can think is that some may have gone on the floor. Since they have been round my dog has seemed really out of sorts. How do i know if she has accidentally ingested some amphetamine, what do i do to help her.

All advice greatley appreciated.

Please don't wait for an answer here, you need to take the dog to a vet. No comment about your partner or their friends, they have a choice about what they put in their systems.

Yep - phone the vet. Drugs can cause different problems to dogs than to humans. It's not worth taking a risk.

agree with other people go to the vets explain etc dont lie about whatever you think he may ingested.

if your on certain benefits and have a pdsa in your catchment area they will see your dog free.

sorry "he"

I would be questioning whether they actually gave the dog anything, you never know if they were under the influence. I would be f*cking livid if I thought anyone had let my dog get anywhere near anything like this. For god's sake get it to a vet and while you are there ask about having your partner put down.

phone the vet now - and I agree with Lankeela, it's not unknown for idiots to give a pet a bit of speed or whatever "just for a laugh". Do it NOW, even if you have to pay for an out of hours visit.

I don't suppose we will ever know what happened here as the OP doesn't usually bother.

[boxtops]

I wouldn't say that - 39 questions, 40 answers, that's not a bad ratio - I hope she's not responding because she's already at the vet.

[boxtops]

we're not being condemnatory of the lifestyle, sam (whether or not we agree with it), we're concerned about the dog's health in this post.

[boxtops]

I agree with that, sam, but right at the moment, I'm more concerned about the dog

[ladybirder]

Have you asked your partner if the dog was given/took anything?

[crazygirly]

Hi all

My dog is well. She had, had something which i have a good idea of what. In the end i decided to drop the fella and now me n my pooch are happier.

By the way Ladybirder.....what does OP mean?
