    Please be advised its 3% Hydrogen Peroxide. Don't use 9% Hydrogen Peroxide. If you have 9% Hydrogen Peroxide, dilute 1 cap with 2 caps water to bring it to 3%. Use 5ml per 10lbs of Dog. My Dog was 26Kg - 50lbs so needed 50ml of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide after swallowing some floss. It was impossible to squirt it down with a syringe, so I have to give up after 40mins, and the dog was so distressed I put a little water down for him, when empty, I swapped it for 50ml of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide (looks just like water) - he indiscrimately lapped it up! He then puked up a pile of forming, fizzing mucus within a few mins. I couldnt find the floss in there, but I found a few chicken bones from earlier so I guess it must have came up. I gave him a big bowl of water after that, chaining him to the yard in case he puked some more.

    My dog, Pete, once again, ate some of the fabric off of his bed. Unfortunately, I was out of Hydrogen Peroxide, my fiance was at work, and my car was in the shop. Short of getting a cab to go to Walgreens and get the Hydrogen Peroxide, I thought I would google this on the internet. When I heard you say that you could use 1/2 Tsp of salt on the back of the throat, I thought I would give it a try. Voila! It worked like a charm. I think I'd probably vomit if someone did that to me as well. Thanks for this effective alternative. I had even called my vet to ask them, but all they knew about was the Hydrogen Peroxide. I think I'll call them and tell them about the salt!
