A dog that drinks disinfectant may show poisoning, with severity depending on the ingredients, amount and time drunk, and the dog’s weight and age. Common symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, rapid or difficult breathing, coma, and mucosal bleeding (mouth, nose, tear ducts).
So if a dog accidentally drinks disinfectant, take it to a veterinary hospital immediately. On the way, give some water or milk to dilute the toxin, but do not make the dog vomit.
