Toxin and breathing calls put through to a technician
"My dog ate a bag of chocolate chips" is never put on hold. A technician is on the line in seconds with what was eaten, how much and when, and after hours the owner hears where to drive.
A caller says a pet ate something on your toxin list, or is struggling to breathe, collapsed or bleeding.
Asks three quick questions, warm-transfers to a technician, or gives the emergency hospital after hours.
A technician on the line with the pet, the substance and the timing already known.
How it works
- Catches it at once
Chocolate, grapes, xylitol gum, lilies, rodent bait, human medications, or words like can't breathe or collapsed, at any point in a call.
- Asks three things
What the pet is, what they ate and roughly how much, and when. Nothing that slows down the transfer.
- Puts a tech on
Warm-transfers to a veterinary technician with a two-line summary first. No hold, no queue behind routine calls.
- After hours
Gives the emergency hospital you send clients to, with the address and the drive, and the animal poison helpline you choose.
- Never reassures
It never says a pet will be fine or a dose is too small to matter. The technician or vet decides.
- Logs it for the morning
The call goes on the pet's record, so the vet sees it at the next visit or follow-up.
Example call
- CustomerMy dog just ate a bag of chocolate chips off the counter. What do I do?
- AI agentI'm getting a technician on right now. Quickly: what kind of dog and about how big, and was it milk or dark chocolate?
- CustomerMoose, a lab mix, about 15 kilos. Semi-sweet chips, most of a bag. Ten minutes ago.
- AI agentThank you. Stay with me, I'm connecting you to Mélanie now.
- AI agent(to the technician) Moose, lab mix, 15 kilos, ate most of a bag of semi-sweet chips about ten minutes ago. Owner on the line.
- CustomerOkay. Okay.
After the call: Mélanie took the call knowing the dog, the weight, the chocolate and the timing, and told the owner to bring Moose straight in. The front desk had his file open when he arrived.

Questions
Can it tell an owner whether to bring the pet in?
No. It gets a technician on the line, and the technician or vet decides. It never says a pet will be fine.
What happens after hours?
It gives the emergency hospital you send clients to, with the address, and the animal poison helpline you choose. It can also try your on-call vet if you have one.
What if a technician doesn't pick up?
It tries the next person on your list, stays with the owner, and if nobody answers it gives the emergency hospital and helpline.
Does it catch it on a booking call?
Yes. If an owner mentions the cat chewed a lily while booking a vaccine, it stops and puts them through.
