Hydrogen peroxide. For a dog that has ingested a poisonous substance where vomiting will be the solution to expel the toxin, put 1 tsp' [3%] HP in the mouth. Take the dog OUTSIDE and throw a pinch of salt in its mouth. The entire contents of the stomach will be immediately expelled.

I agree with Wayne, if your dog has eaten something that won't do more harm than good by making them vomit, then peroxide is definetly the ticket! We got a rescue dog from the shelter and a couple days after bringing him home he found a stick of mouse poison. By the time I saw him with it he had finished almost the whole stick. Desparate for answers I turned to Google and many posts had recommended this. I had not read anything about salt though, I just took a syringe and shot a couple tablespoons down his throat (he's a labradane, approx 80#) Within about 5 minutes he emptied his stomach. I spoke with poison control and they said since I had caught it quickly and he had vomitted that he should be okay, just watch him closely for the next 12-24 hrs. Fortunately, he was fine and continues to be a happy healthy member of our family!
