You are right to be concerned. The chemical of poison in D-Con is brodifacoum. Warfarins are used in both rat and mouse poison products. This substance is classified as a superwarfarin, which can be highly toxic to dogs, even if they ingest a poisoned rodent.
Here are some other common chemicals found in mouse/rat poisons you should be aware of. Examine the label to determine if these are the active poisons in that product:
Strychnine which is used as a rat, mouse and mole poison. It is toxic to dogs and a dog may be harmed by eating or ganwing on the rodent who ingested it.
Sodium fluroacetate is also a chemical used as a rat poison, and it is mixed with cereal, bran and other rat feeds. It is so potent that cats and dogs can be poisoned just by eating the dead rodent.
Zinc phosphide This substance also is found in rat poisons. Toxic to dogs and cats also.
