The effect of ethanol on dogs and cats is similar to its effect on humans, also causing intoxication. Death is unlikely given supportive care (only one death is known). Ethanol is also an antidote for ethylene glycol poisoning. [47] Mouse and rat poison, anticoagulant type Rodenticide is commonly found in the house or garage.
[4] [5] In contrast, dogs bark in many social situations, with acoustic communication in dogs being described as hypertrophic. [6] While wolf barks tend to be brief and isolated, dog barking is often repetitive.

The alert can be a specific bark or position, and can be accepted as evidence in courts of law.
