Deakin researchers reveal 1080 poison risk for pet dogs.

This is the first qualitive study to give voice to people whose dogs have been harmed by 1080.

A Deakin University team - comprised of Dr Adam Cardilini, Dr Alexa Hayley and Associate Professor Bill Borrie - interviewed seven people about their dogs’ deaths from 1080 poisoning to understand its impact on dog guardians and their relationships with other animals.

The participants shared uniquely personal stories, yet strikingly all identified the experience of watching their dog die from 1080 poisoning as ‘horrendous’ and ‘horrifying’.

There is no specific antidote for 1080 poisoning, however veterinary treatments can assist in your dog’s survival.

    You really shouldn’t be expecting 100% upvotes for anything you post, and if you do, I’d stop posting now, because it’s completely unrealistic.

      I’m not. I’m asking for some debate so I can focus on what people want. The downvote means fuck all in that regard.

      Thanks for the hot take though!
