Does anyone happen to know if a puppy can gain a natural immunity to stuff like creosote....?? Or does it maybe need a vaccine to give protection do you think..??

Reading this website:  http://petsadviser.com/behaviors/dog-chews-too-much/  it says creosote is highly toxic to dogs, so I don't think they can build up an immunity to it or get a vaccine to give protection.

This website also states: http://drpollen.blogspot.com/2008/08/common-liver-toxins.html

Creosote
Roofing tar, tar paper, and wood preservatives contain creosote as a preservative. Pets that sleep on treated decks, in treated dog houses, or that crawl over tar paper rooms are affected. Creosote causes liver disease.

Creosote is carcinogenic and toxic is no longer allowed to be used so if somone is using it they shouldn't any way. Can't see how u cld tell if a pup had built up natural immunity sounds like rubbish
