I had to give my do hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting since he ate a grape. The vet said to give him 3 tablespoons but giving it to him I was having trouble measuring exactly. Is it possible I have too much and it could be harmful? He has now stopped vomiting and is acting normal.

Hello. We generally recommend 1 ml of peroxide per pound, with the maximum amount being 45 mls. This would be 3 tablespoons. If your dog truly weighs only 27 pounds, then I would not give any more peroxide. If Charlie does not vomit within 20 minutes of administering the peroxide, then you can take him in to your vet so another medication can be given to induce vomiting. But if all he ate was 1 grape, then he should be just fine. Just watch him for the next 2-3 days for indications of illness, including loss of appetite, vomiting & lethargy. If he remains bright & alert, no problems eating or drinking, then the one grape did not harm him & he will be fine. Any concerns, just see your vet tomorrow for followup. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
