My dog ate matches. What symptoms should I watch for after vet visit?

She will most likely pass them in the next 24-48 hours. There is a concern for an obstruction if it was a full pack of matches as opposed to individual ones. Monitor for vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy or signs of abdominal pain. As long as she isn't showing signs of GI upset, feed her as you normally do. Seek veterinary attention if you see any of the listed symptoms.

Small amounts will likely cause just gastrointestinal upset (vomiting and diarrhea). Daisy would need to ingest a large quantity for serious toxicity to develop. Monitor for GI upset, drooling, loss of appetite or abdominal pain. Feed a bland diet if necessary. See your vet if her symptoms do not resolve.

If you are worried she ingested an object, like a sock or shoe then you would watch for signs of gastrointestinal upset such as vomiting, anorexia, abdominal pain, lethargy, or straining to defecate. If you are worried about a toxin ingestion these signs can vary widely and can include GI upset, rapid breathing or heart rate, excessive drooling, trembling, seizures, drunken appearance/gait, dilated pupils, pale gums, lethargy. If any of these signs occur seek veterinary care right away.

Good question. Look for tremors, drooling, constricted pupils, diarrhea, seizures, and an increased heart rate. Typically symptoms of nicotine poisoning occur within one hour of ingestion, but I'd watch him tonight to be safe. If you see any of the signs I mentioned above, please take him into a vet immediately. I hope this helps!

This will likely not cause a problem. However, make sure you are watching him for any signs of discomfort including diarrhea, vomiting, acting painful or lethargic, or decreased appetite. If you notice anything unusual, it would be best to take him in to your vet for an exam.

I would only worry if you see symptoms of a possible obstruction, which includes: excessive vomiting, lack of appetite, lethargy and few feces. If seen then its best to take him to your vet for a proper exam and testing to determine if the gloves are still inside. Hopefuly he continues to do well as it seems he has done so far. Best wishes and take care!

Bones can cause dental problems like broken teeth, and GI problems like obstruction and perforation. I would watch Babu for now. If you see a loss of appetite, him chewing on only one side of mouth or refusing to eat hard food, vomiting, diarrhea, blood in his poop, or lethargy, have him seen by a vet immediately. It can take a couple of days to see signs, or you may see signs within 24 hours. I hope this helps.
