  • Title: Suspected lasalocid poisoning in three dogs.
    Author: Espino L, Suarez ML, Miño N, Goicoa A, Fidalgo LE, Santamarina G.
    Journal: Vet Hum Toxicol; 2003 Oct; 45(5):241-2. PubMed ID: 14513890.
    Abstract:
    The ionophore lasalocid has been used as a feed additive for broilers chickens and for improving feed efficiency in ruminants. Although dogs appear to be more sensitive to lasalocid intoxication than other species, there is only 1 report in the veterinary literature about lasalocid poisoning in dogs. We describe the clinical signs, treatment and resolution of 3 hunting dogs that developed acute neurological signs consistent with lasalocid poisoning after the consumption of several broilers that had died on a nearby farm.
