Sometimes it happens accidentally, or someone thinks it would be fun to see the effects of a particular substance on a pet. At times pet owners with the best of intentions may give medications that have been effective for themselves or another pet often with disastrous consequences. Then there's the inquisitive pet that tastes, touches something that could be poisonous. How do you know when to call your veterinarian or pet poison control number? Did you even know there was a pet poison control organization?

Today's guest, Dr. Justine Lee knows the answers to these questions and more. She's a board certified emergency critical care veterinarian and a diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology.
