Pamphlets explaining how to administer Narcan to pets after they ingested fentanyl are being handed out throughout crime-riddled Seattle.
The leaflets titled 'Naloxone & Dogs' were shared by the King County Public Health Center throughout Belltown, We Heart Seattle reported.
They provide resources on what to do if someone’s pet ingests hard drugs.
'They're dogs. They put stuff in their mouth. These are accidents. If your furry friend ODs, it does NOT make you a bad person,' the pamphlet reads.
'They might lick the ground or a discarded cooker/foil. There might be traces on our hands.
'They might sniff the ground and inhale a small piece. They might get some on their fur / paws and lick it off. They're dogs. They put stuff in their mouth,' it continued.
The pamphlet further advised that if someone thinks their 'furry friend' may have ingested drugs, they should not leave them alone for the next few hours.
'Often if something is going to happen it'll be within the first 30 minutes but sometimes s*** doesn't happen the way we expect. If you can't stay with them, find someone who can,' it read.

Wilson has previously joked about welcoming wealthy residents leaving the city following Washington state’s new 10 percent tax on individuals earning over $1 million annually
One 36-year-old local, who gave his name as Brandon, told the Daily Mail that Wilson is 'cool' after her office and Seattle's progressive city attorney Erika Evans reportedly plotted to avoid prosecuting most public drugs use cases.
Brandon, who lives on the streets because he prefers them to his taxpayer-funded apartment, said of Wilson's new plans: 'They tried to do that already during Covid. We went buck wild! I'm not gonna lie. We blew it up.'
Clearly excited by a return to the lawless summer of 2020 when a huge swathe of downtown Seattle was taken over by anarchists, fentanyl and meth user Brandon said the government 'should not be going around and telling everybody what to f**king do.'
