A 4.5-month-old German pointer was presented with tetraplegia. Based on the physical examination, a tentative diagnosis of idiopathic polyneuropathy or synaptic disorder was made. Later that day additional information from the owner revealed that the dog might have ingested sloe berries that had been used to make sloe gin. Ethanol poisoning was added to the differential diagnosis. The dog's locomotion recovered in the course of 24 hours. Faecal analysis revealed that the animal had ingested at least 127 gin-saturated sloe berries and it was estimated that the blood ethanol concentration would have been at least 0.75 per thousand. The aetiology, diagnosis, and treatment of ethanol poisoning in dogs is reviewed.
一只4.5个月大的德国短毛指示犬出现四肢瘫痪。根据体格检查，初步诊断为特发性多神经病或突触疾病。当天晚些时候，主人提供的更多信息显示，这只狗可能误食了用于制作黑刺李杜松子酒的黑刺李浆果。乙醇中毒也被列入鉴别诊断。这只狗的运动能力在24小时内恢复。粪便分析显示，这只动物至少摄入了127颗浸满杜松子酒的黑刺李浆果，据估计其血液乙醇浓度至少为千分之0.75。本文对犬类乙醇中毒的病因、诊断和治疗进行了综述。
