How bad is it?
She licked some off of a rifle last night. She pooped and puked like crazy and wouldn't eat her breakfast this morning which is very unusual. The vet said to call poison control, but I figure she's just gotta get it out of her system. Somebody here has had that happen before I'm sure. Thanks! |
I can't imagine she got much of a tummyfull by licking it off a rifle 
Even if you had it sopping wet, that's not much of a quantity. I suppose it wouldn't hurt to call poison control and ask, it's a free call. Is the dog drinking water? To be honest, I'm really surprised she got sick at all. |
| I would of suggested at least calling poison control last night or contact the manufacturer as they will have the MSDS and all other pertinent info on it's ill effects. I wouldn't mess around any longer and would contact someone in the know immediately. Good luck. |

I've heard (from a dog breeder) that dogs can benefit from being given some garlic mixed with water. Sort of acts like activated charcoal. DO NOT give your dog garlic or onions. They are toxic to dogs. http://www.healthypet.com/library_view.aspx?id=133 Mike F |

CLP contains mostly polyalphaolefin oil, but also dibasic esters and isoparaffinic hydrocarbons. (All of which can be absorbed into skin by the way).
Polyalphaolefin is not generally considered toxic to mammals, but can be an irritant. Likewise, Isoparaffins have a very low order of acute toxicity, so that ingredient probably isn't the problem. Dibasic esters are what gives CLP its fruity smell. I don't know what mix of esters they're using, among the succinate, glutarate or adipate varieties, but I do think there are some published studies indicating these bring a risk of cytotoxicity, though it is supposed to be minor. Get on the horn with poison control and tell them your dog ingested an unknown quantity of polyalphaolefin oil, dibasic esters and isoparaffinic hydrocarbons. See if they have a recommended mitigation treatmetn. |

Well, CLP is supposed to help release lead from the action/barrel/etc. I'd still be a bit worried about the long term effects of lead ingestion.
I'm not a vet or scientist or Dave_A, so I'm not saying that with any authority on the subject, it's just the way I'd look at it. |

It went over my head, flew past me, changed the trajectory of the thread, and made me completely forget the one-liner I was going to post in response to the OP. |
