My dog ate burnt marshmallows. Should I be worried about his health?

Hello. It is possible, depending on how much Mijah ate. All that sugar can cause what we call an osmotic diarrhea by pulling excess water out of the ingesta in the intestines. Most of these diarrheas are self-limiting, so if Mijah feels like eating you can feed a bland diet of 25% boiled chicken & 75% white rice or low fat cottage cheese. Feed small amounts more frequently over the next 2-3 days, & the stool should start to firm up. If she shows any signs of abdominal pain, starts vomiting, or you see blood in the diarrhea, please see your vet as soon as possible. Thanks for using Pet Coach.

Rio is probably pretty uncomfortable from all that sugar and calories! I would pick up his regular food for a few hours, then offer a bland meal of boiled chicken and rice to help settle any stomach upset. If he starts to act very ill such as vomiting a lot, diarrhea for more than a day or so, blood in either, a painful to touch abdomen, or attempting to vomit or defecate without being able to, bring him into your vet ASAP for care as these are all signs of something more serious.

She should be fine. Just keep an eye on her and do not induce vomiting. She may have vomiting or diarrhea but probably not. If so she should be better in a day or so. If she should become lethargic or have stomach pain or severe diarrhea then certainly take her in for treatment right away.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and adding the picture! I think Miracle will be fine. There is nothing toxic in marshmallows. If she ate a lot of them, I would worry about vomiting or diarrhea but I doubt she ate enough to cause a problem. Kisses to Miracle!

As long as there is no xylitol, the worst you may see is some minor stomach upset (vomiting or diarrhea). As long as Charlie is behaving normally, you should be fine. Minor stomach upset can typically be managed at home with a short fast followed by a bland diet fed in small, frequent amounts until symptoms resolve. Transition slowly to the regular diet afterwards. Symptoms that should be addressed by your veterinarian may include: persistent or worsening stomach upset, loss of appetite, abdominal pain or lethargy.

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It really depends on what was in the lollipop. If the lollipop had some sort of gum or filling, it can cause an obstruction in her intestines. If she also ate the stick, that may cause problems such as a perforation, especially if the stick was plastic. The sugar content may make Hazel slightly hyper or shaky as well. I recommend bringing her to the vet if you are worried, as any of the conditions above are easier to treat the earlier they are diagnosed. You can also watch her for vomiting, lethargy, and loss of appetite. Good luck with Hazel!

Most types of gummy bears should not cause any problems; however, you should check the ingredients to make sure that they don't contain [xylitol](https://www.petcoach.co/article/6-products-that-contain-xylitol/). If they don't, then Bogo should be just fine apart from some mild GI upset such as loose stool for a day or so. If they do contain xylitol, this is a more serious problem because this sweetener is toxic to dogs - so if this is on the ingredient list, I would recommend having him seen by an emergency vet right away so that they can induce vomiting and start treatment to try and prevent any problems.
