Dogs and naloxone – March 2022

We have been hearing in community that people are concerned about possible opiate overdose in their dogs and unsure what to do. We did some research and put together this pamphlet on naloxone (Narcan) and rescue breathing for dogs. To make the text line up, print the pamphlet double-sided then fold it in half one way, then in half the other way (with page 2 on the inside of all the folding).

We want to be clear that a dog overdosing does NOT mean their person is bad at taking care of their furry family member. Dogs put everything in their mouths, that’s what dogs do. Many people (not just people who use drugs) have their dogs get sick from eating things they shouldn’t. With capitalism and criminalization of certain kinds of drugs, there’s incentive to make drugs more concentrated & potent so they can be more easily transported with greater profit. This means fentanyl and carfentanil are increasingly in street drugs — and it doesn’t take much of these drugs to overdose humans, let alone smaller animals like dogs. As usual the real problem is harmful laws and policies!
