This is one of those occations when it pays to really known your horse. Sometimes the onset of an illness is so subtle that an unaware owner may not act in time. Signs of poisoning are:lethargy, disinterest in food and/or his surroundings, signs of colic*, drooling, difficulty breathing, rapid pulse, sweating. This is not a complete list but covers some of the more common symptoms. The best detecter is you. If you feel there is something a little 'off' with your animal call your vet. He may not need to come out but always error on the safe side.

*Signs of colic:nipping at flanks or sides, slow gut noises, loss of appetite, laying down frequently with or without rolling, pacing or acting uncomfortable, sweating. If you see any of these signs in your horse's behaviour whether it's from a poisonous plant our something else, consult your vet ASAP.
