My dog knocked over kalanchoe. Should I induce vomiting if he didn't eat?

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Mocha. I never recommend including vomiting at home because the substance used at home causes esophagitis and gastritis, often worse than the initial problem. Plus, the shoe could become stuck in his esophagus, leading to a very serious situation. You can take him into a vet now to have vomiting safely induced with a shot, or you can chose to monitor him. If you see vomiting, diarrhea, blood in his poop, anorexia, or lethargy, he should see a vet immediately. I hope this helps!

I would not induce vomiting with her. I would keep her warm and maybe offer just very small amounts of water or low sodium chicken broth. If she doesn’t seem back to normal by morning then I would encourage you to have her evaluated by your veterinarian as soon as possible. Best of luck and I hope she improves soon.

Oh no, that was naughty of Junior! Cocoa is toxic to dogs, but it depends on how much was in the donut as to whether or not it leads to toxic symptoms. In looking up the ingredients, I see that it contains less than 2% of cocoa, so the amount in this little donut is not likely to cause toxic symptoms. Junior should be ok, but keep an eye on him for now. To be safe, you can take him into a vet to safely induce vomiting. I don't recommend inducing vomiting at home. That's because hydrogen peroxide (which is used at home to induce vomiting) can and does cause severe esophagitis and gastritis, often worse than the initial problem, so it's always preferred to advise emergency care. Take him into a vet now to induce vomiting.

I do not think you need to induce vomiting. the poop will get digested. Usually this is not dangerous, however there is a possibility that your dog may get some indigestion, ie maybe vomiting or diarrhea which would be due to bacteria your dog is not used to. If that is the case, you may want to withhold feed for about 12-24 hrs, then feed rice and some chicken and then slowly introduce his normal feed.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about your dogs. That's not good! I would not inducing vomiting. This may not be enough to cause any problems, and I would just keep an eye on them. Rest them, avoid taking them for a walk, and don't give them any more food until the morning. Hopefully, they should be fine. I hope this helps!

No, I do not recommend inducing vomiting. The pieces could get stuck or cause trauma to Zoe's esophagus. This may pass without problem, so keep an eye on her for now, and give her one piece of bread with each meal. No more coconut oil. If you see vomiting, diarrhea, blood in her feces, anorexia, or lethargy, have her seen by a vet right away. Best of luck.

Induction of vomiting is only helpful if it is within a couple hours or if it is in the stomach and hasn't passed. At this time, I would not recommend induction of vomiting. I would take Rocket in to the vet for x-rays and/or ultrasound which will help determine if there is something still in the stomach or provide a baseline to be used for comparison should he start to feel sick. Watch him closely over the next few days for lethargy, decreased appetite, gagging, or vomiting, which would warrant immediate vet attention.
