    If you think that could have happened, take the puppy to the vet or emergency vet IMMEDIATELY. They can do a test to tell whether it has ingested antifreeze and either put your mind at ease, or treat right away. Without immediate treatment, your puppy would die if this were ingested.

    Don't leave your puppy outside, but keep inside and use a dog cage.

    It is a very real possibility that your dog could die. Antifreeze is like a poison to animals. You ought to take your dog to the vet. You should also determine how much antifreeze your dog ate, as it could help if you told the vet.

    How would your puppy get access to antifreeze? In your yard? I your neighbors yard. Does your dog wander free?

    Antifreeze can kill a dog.

    Vet asap.

    Anti-freeze is also known as ethylene-glycol, is a POISON. It interferes with the operation of the kidneys, resulting in renal failure and death... There IS treatment available but only IF administered in the early stages before the kidneys actually fail... otherwise, only a kidney transplant will work, maybe. This stuff is poison, and mostly fatal... The problem is it has a sweet flavor, so it is not bad based on taste...

    in case you think, call your vet ASAP. there is an antidote even though it ought to be administered quickly after the poisoning. Taking the dogs in to be examined for show is the only thank you to determine. i've got no longer witnessed something make canines' breath scent candy different than diabetes which additionally needs vet interest. call the vet so which you would be confident your dogs is okay.
