If you know your puppy has eaten a foreign object or poisonous substance, take it to the vet immediately. If it’s late at night or your normal vet is unavailable, call a 24-hour emergency vet clinic and explain the situation. The clinic should give you advice on whether to come in or wait until the next day.
If you suspect your dog has eaten something it shouldn’t have, but you don’t know for sure, look for the following signs:
Vomiting/gagging
Lack of appetite
Changes in behavior
Lethargy
Diarrhea or constipation
Abdominal pain
If your puppy is displaying these symptoms, see your vet as soon as possible.
