How can I use hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting in dogs?

Answer by  rbiales (3441)

Be sure that it's regular topical hydrogen peroxide, and get a needleless syringe or a baby medicine spoon from a pharmacist. Place either well down the dog's mouth while holding on to it firmly so that the dog doesn't swallow that, too.

I am EXTREMELY perplexed why you would wish to induce vomiting. Hydrogen Peroxide can destroy tissue and conduct infection, and poison on it's own. It would be VERY cruel to force a dog to ingest it. As with small children, if you need to induce vomiting (and you should research diligently when this may be done! ) use syrup of Ipecac.

Did your dog eat something or are you just trying to commit animal cruelty? If the dog ate something, take it to the vet to have it removed.

NEVER give your dog anything to induce vomiting unless instructed by your Dog's Vet. Peroxide can be dangerous for your dog.

Use three percent hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting. Do not use hair coloring strength peroxide as it is toxic. Give one teaspoon per ten pounds of body weight.

I don't think that would be a good idea, you should talk to the vet before you give the dog anything.
