Abstract An extensive search of the literature was conducted for articles concerning the toxicology and treatment of six compounds (Mace, TNT, Smokeless Powder, Dynamite, RDX, and C-4) used, or considered for use, in training devices in the USAF Military Dog Program. Published results of research in the laboratory animals and information from documented cases of human poisoning were used to: predict the toxicity of these compounds for dogs, outline the probable symptoms of acute and chronic toxicosis, and develop a suggested course of treatment for poisoning by each compound.
