I don't know what D-Con is but if i were you i would call the ASPCA Animal poison control center the number is 1.888.426.4435 or i would call the vet immedently ask tpo bring your dog in if they say n o then find another vet. Don't let your dog run around alot or play until you get him or her to the vet because that will make the Posin go into it's system Faster. Good Luck.

Don't panic! D-Con toxicity is VERY treatable. There is a very specific antidote, called Vitamin K, that may need to be given for several weeks, but still - that's better than having your dog get sick! D-Con is poisonous because it causes internal bleeding. You're right, your dog has to eat more than, say, a mouse would for it to be toxic... but still, I'd have your vet make the final call.

Get to the vet they can give Vitamin K injections to help combat the problem. Also if it has not been very long they wil make the dog vomit to get out the stuff in the stomach.
D-Con causes a blood clotting problem but they can fix it so get your pet to the vet.

Call the vet. Even a small amount can harm him, although it may not kill him. Best advice, call or go see your vet right away.

Even just a little bit can severely hurt him, if not kill him. It would shut down his organ functions. Please take him to the vet. They will give him active charcoal to counter effect the d-con, and make him throw up. But it has to be done immedialty!

The dog can die. It can bleed to death internally and may need Vit K injections to help with clotting!!!!! CALL THE VET!!!!
