Question
Hey. Thank you for taking the time to help me and my puppy. He is a male 6 month great dane.
I caught him drinking Out of the toilet, and the toilet water was blue due to cleaner. It is ok that he drank that water. Will he get sick? He has been normal and has shown no symptoms of distress, so just making sure he will be ok. Thank you for the time. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

Answer
Hi Courtney,  Here are some numbers to call, besides your local vet.
Be ready to name the product that was in the toilet water.
I hope he will be ok..... Just make the calls. ( they are the experts on this)

Poison Control Hotlines

It's always a good idea to post close at hand your veterinarian's number, the number of an emergency clinic, and the number for the Poison Control Center. Before you call, note the time your pet was exposed to the toxin, the type of product ingested, the manufacturer's name and any ingredients you can find listed on packaging.

        If you need to speak to a veterinarian there, this service will be billed to a credit card. An alternate
        number is (900) 680-0000. A veterinarian's services on this line will cost a flat fee for the first five
        minutes, and an additional fee per minute for each additional minute. These charges will be billed
