Well it's not quite directly dogs but I think it's a good thing IMO. I've seen so many dogs accidently get poisoned over the years from eating dead rats/mice, finding some pellets spilled (in one case in a roadway / sidewalk) or trash raiding that I must say that I'm kind of glad to see that go away although it'll take years and years for the stashes of poison to be used up.

Having learned the "eat the dead mice" the hard way with our Chocolate Lab, and around $3500 later and a healthy dog again, I would encourage anyone with kids and animals to use a different route to get rid of mice and/or rats.
Molly, we figured out, was eating the dead mice, she did not at anytime get into the D-con itself. This was 9 years ago.
Also know that it takes quite a while and quite a few mice to actually poison your dog.
9 days at the Ft Collins CO. vet school, I.V.'s and Vitamin K for a LONG time, not to mention the antibiotics and the other coagulants they had to use, we now use TONS of traps and cats. (we have grain storage so mice come with the territory, but with the traps and cats, we keep it minimal. )
