Can fertilizer hurt dogs

If a dog were to consume a substantial dose of fertilizer it will most likely need medical attention depending on the amount consumed or if consumed at all. It's funny, last week I too wondered the same thing because i let my pooch play out in the yard for an hour or so but i didnt realize there was fertilizer on our lawn until after i went and brought her inside and i noticed a yellow color around her nose and mouth. Then I saw that the lawn had been fertilized. She was fine and did not need medical attention but she also did not consume any of the fertilizer, she just had her nose in the grass following scents of other animals around the yard. However, she may have been fine, but if a dog were to consume fertilizer it wil need medical attention because fertilizer is toxic to humans and animals alike. If you think your dog has consumed fertilizer bring him or her to the vet because it will probably need to either be purged and/or have its stomach pumped. But if your dog is just playing in the yard and not consuming the fertilizer it will most likely be fine. Hope this helps!
