What should you do if your dog ate a caterpillar?
If your dog ate a caterpillar, you should watch for signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling of the face, difficulty breathing, or vomiting. If your dog shows any of these signs, you should take them to the vet immediately.
Some caterpillars, such as the saddleback caterpillar, can cause a painful rash if they come into contact with your dog’s skin. If your dog has been in contact with a caterpillar, you should wash the area with soap and water and monitor your dog for any signs of a rash.
If your dog has eaten a caterpillar and you are not sure what type of caterpillar it was, you should contact your vet. They will be able to help you determine if the caterpillar is poisonous and recommend the best course of treatment.
