PET POISONING TESTS
Do you think your dog or cat may have been the victim of pet poisoning? If you have reason to believe that your pet was killed by a type of poison, chemical or drug, Private Lab Results offers several pet poisoning tests that can help you find answers.
We can test for the 5 most commonly found heavy metal poisons or toxins-arsenic, lead, mercury, chromium, and cadmium. Pets may be exposed to heavy metals in a variety of ways. They can eat chips of lead-based paint or inhale the lead based dust. Also, they can get into garbage or pick them up from the soil. They drink the same water we do, so excessive lead, copper, or chromium in the water makes them sick too. For heavy metal testing we’ll need 100 grams or 3.5 oz of food.
Did you find an empty food can or partially eaten food? If so, we can test it for a variety of drugs and household chemicals and poisons. Do you think someone put something in their water? If you have some left we can test it. To test leftover food for drugs or chemicals we’ll need 60ml or about 1/4 cup. If you think the poison was in the water, we’ll need 15ml or at least a tablespoon.
Every year in the US there are over 125,000 reported cases of pet poisoning. Sadly, many of these are accidental poisonings. Symptoms of pet poisoning include neurological problems, gastrointestinal issues, as well as respiratory & cardiac distress.
We can now test water or food for antifreeze (ethylene glycol). If you think your pet was poisoned with antifreeze and you still have some of the food or water, send it to us. We need 20 ml of liquid or 2 tablespoons of food for testing. Seal the sample so it won’t leak and send to us for testing. $60
