Pterostichus beetle ingestion is not toxic to dogs.

Pterostichus beetles are commonly found in gardens and fields and are not known to be poisonous to dogs. Ingesting a small number of these beetles is unlikely to cause any adverse effects.

However, if your dog has eaten a large number of Pterostichus beetles, it may experience some mild gastrointestinal upset such as:

  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Loss of appetite

If your dog is experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to contact your veterinarian for advice.

In general, the following steps are recommended if your dog has ingested Pterostichus beetles:

  1. Monitor your dog for any symptoms of gastrointestinal upset.
  2. If your dog is vomiting or has diarrhea, withhold food and water for 12-24 hours.
  3. Offer your dog small amounts of water every few hours to prevent dehydration.
  4. If your dog’s symptoms do not improve within 24 hours, or if they become worse, contact your veterinarian.

Prevention:

To prevent your dog from ingesting Pterostichus beetles, keep your yard free of debris and keep your pet away from areas where these beetles are likely to be found.
