I just read on another board where a K9 was searching a vehicle and started sneezing and throwing up. when they searched under the vehicle where the K9 had shown this behavior they found 2 metal boxes attached to the frame with big magnets it also had the smell of acid. The driver stated the reason the dog got sick was that they put some type of acid from the body shop ( poss. boric acid ) in a spray bottle and when they put the boxes on the car they sprayed the area with acid to make the dog sick. i just wanted to let every handler to know. Has anyone else had any encounter like this as well?
I know that it is a "no-no" to activate an old thread like this one, but it made me curious about something. I am going through the old threads on some of my training interests and thought I'd seek an answer for the question I'm about to ask.
Anyway.. getting a bit long winded here. In the event that someone were to try and mask an odor, either to hide it or to proof training, if the dog shows reactions like those mentioned in the original post, what first aid measures should be taken for the dog? I have found several manuals at various pet stores, etc. about general first aid, but is there a good one on the market dealing with issues that might be encountered in the field rather than in the kitchen?
