If the dog ate a prune within the last 2 hours:
-
Induce vomiting: Only attempt this if your veterinarian has instructed you to do so, as it can be dangerous if done incorrectly. Follow their instructions carefully.
-
Contact your veterinarian immediately: They will provide further instructions and may administer activated charcoal or other treatments to absorb the prune and prevent absorption.
If the dog ate a prune more than 2 hours ago:
-
Monitor the dog closely: Watch for any signs of distress or discomfort, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain.
-
Offer plenty of water: Prunes are high in fiber, so the dog may experience constipation. Encourage them to drink water to help move the prune through the digestive tract.
-
Feed a bland diet: Offer a bland diet, such as boiled chicken and rice, to help settle the dog’s stomach.
-
Avoid laxatives: Do not give the dog laxatives without consulting your veterinarian, as they can worsen the situation.
Potential complications:
- Gastrointestinal upset: Prunes can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
- Digestive blockage: In rare cases, a prune can cause a blockage in the digestive tract, which can be life-threatening.
- Hyperglycemia: Prunes are high in sugar, so they can cause a temporary spike in blood sugar levels in diabetic dogs.
When to seek veterinary attention:
- If the dog shows any signs of distress or discomfort.
- If the dog has not defecated within 24 hours of eating the prune.
- If the dog is diabetic and shows signs of hyperglycemia (excessive thirst, urination, or lethargy).
Prevention:
- Keep prunes and other dried fruits out of reach of dogs.
- Train your dog not to scavenge for food.
