If your dog ate a bagel, the first thing you should do is to remain calm and assess the situation.
1. Determine the type of bagel and the amount eaten. Different types of bagels contain different ingredients, and some may be more harmful to dogs than others. Additionally, the amount eaten will affect the severity of the reaction.
2. Observe your dog for any signs of distress. Symptoms of bagel ingestion in dogs can include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, lethargy, and loss of appetite. If you notice any of these symptoms, contact your veterinarian immediately.
3. Contact your veterinarian. Even if your dog is not showing any symptoms, it is important to contact your veterinarian for advice. They can help you determine if your dog needs to be seen for examination or treatment.
4. Follow your veterinarian’s instructions. Your veterinarian may recommend inducing vomiting, giving your dog medication, or monitoring them for symptoms. Follow their instructions carefully to ensure your dog’s safety.
5. Keep your dog hydrated. Vomiting and diarrhea can lead to dehydration, so it is important to keep your dog hydrated by offering them plenty of water.
6. Avoid giving your dog any food for 12-24 hours. This will help to give their digestive system a chance to rest.
7. Feed your dog a bland diet for a few days. Once your dog is feeling better, start them on a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice. This will help to soothe their digestive system and prevent further irritation.
8. Gradually reintroduce your dog’s regular diet. Once your dog is eating and drinking normally, you can gradually reintroduce their regular diet.
Bagels are not toxic to dogs, but they can cause digestive upset if eaten in large amounts. If your dog ate a bagel, monitor them for any symptoms of distress and contact your veterinarian if necessary.
