Step 1: Assess the Situation
- Determine how much thyme the dog consumed. Small amounts are unlikely to cause significant problems.
- Observe the dog for any symptoms, such as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or lethargy.

- Bloodwork or other tests may be necessary to assess the dog’s overall health.
- Treatment may include supportive care, such as fluids, anti-nausea medication, or medication to protect the stomach.
Step 4: Monitor the Dog
- Keep the dog calm and quiet.
- Monitor the dog for any changes in behavior, appetite, or elimination.
- Contact your veterinarian immediately if any symptoms worsen or new symptoms develop.
