Just went out to play with my lab. His eyes are really dilated and he seems disoriented. Any ideas?

Anybody? I think he may have stem a sago palm or got poisoned.

Getting pretty worried.

Snake bite maybe?
Not sure what else could cause that.

Usually vets have an emergency number on their voice mail or posted on their website or maybe on their door. Might charge a premium to see him but they won't turn you down.

Take him to an emergency 24hr vet. Don't take a chance with your pal.

Don't think it's a snakebite. No swelling. Everything I've read so far it looks like he was poisoned by something.

agree.

I would put heat stroke, organophosphate poisoning, infection, or other ingestion at the top of the list.


ETA: did you or a neighbor put out any poison for insects?

Then why are you still posting on the OB and not seeking professional help?
