What to Do if Your Dog Ate Leaven
1. Stay Calm and Assess the Situation
- Remain calm and do not panic.
- Determine the amount and type of leaven your dog consumed (e.g., bread dough, pizza crust).
- Observe your dog's behavior carefully for any signs of distress.
2. Contact Your Veterinarian
- Call your veterinarian immediately and inform them of the situation. They will advise you on the best course of action.
3. Induce Vomiting (If Recommended by Veterinarian)
- If your veterinarian recommends inducing vomiting, they will provide instructions on how to do so safely.
- Using a syringe or turkey baster, administer 2-3mL of 3% hydrogen peroxide per pound of body weight.
4. Give Activated Charcoal (Optional)
- Activated charcoal can help absorb toxins and reduce the risk of further absorption into the bloodstream.
- Administer 1-2 grams of activated charcoal per pound of body weight as directed by your veterinarian.
5. Monitor Your Dog
- Keep your dog under close observation for the next 24 hours.
- Watch for signs of distress, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or seizures.
- If any of these symptoms occur, seek immediate veterinary attention.
6. Provide Fluids
- Encourage your dog to drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and flush out any remaining toxins.
7. Restrict Food and Water
- Depending on your veterinarian's advice, it may be necessary to restrict food and water for a period of time to give the digestive system a chance to rest.
Potential Risks and Complications
- Leaven can cause the dough to rise and expand in your dog's stomach or intestines, which can lead to pain, bloating, and obstruction.
- Ethanol production from the yeast in the leaven can lead to alcohol toxicity.
- Severe cases can result in bloat, which is a life-threatening condition requiring emergency surgery.
Prevention
- Keep all leavened products out of reach of your dog.
- Supervise your dog when they are exposed to potentially hazardous foods.
