Vitamin K doesn't clear our your dog's system. Many modern rat poisons are anti-coagulants -- they reduce the blood's ability to clot, which is how the toxin kills rats. Unfortunately, these toxins work the same way on humans and dogs.

Vitamin K increases the mammalian blood clotting factors and thus works as an antagonist to coumidin, warfarin and other such meds.

What if the dog is ok after a day eating rat poison will she still dies?

This will depend upon the type of rat poison. If it is a Vitamin K-inhibiting poision, yes your dog could still die even though she is not showing symptoms of intoxication 24 hours after eating the poison. You can call the ASPCA's toxicology hotline and see if the rat poison your dog ate could still be affecting your dog. This is a common intoxication for pets and the operators should be able to help answer your questions.


If a dog eat rat poison does it get a rash?

Your dog may develop a rash several days to a week after ingesting some types of rat poison because it is having a bleeding crisis. One type of rat poison works by eliminating Vitamin K from the body, which keeps the dog from being able to clot its blood. Over time, this will kill the dog (and is how it kills rats, too) unless it is treated by a veterinarian. If you know that your dog recently ate rat poison, get it to the veterinarian immediately - this is a medical emergency.

Why vitamin c is not a vitamin for dog?

'Normal' Vitamin C is too acidic and can often give a dog an upset stomach. You can give a Calcium based Vitamin C which I believe is called Ester C. Most animals, including dogs, make their own vitamin C in their livers from glucose. Therefore, unless a dog's liver is severely compromised, the dog will make all the vitamin C it needs whenever the need arises.
