My dog ate wasabi almonds. Is it an emergency with IBD/pancreatitis?

None of those nuts are specifically toxic, though the high fat content could cause some vomiting, diarrhea, or pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas that can cause a lot of pain and vomiting). If she starts vomiting and vomits more than twice in a 12 hour period, if she starts acting painful or lethargic, or she’s having watery diarrhea, take her in to your vet. In the meantime, just keep an eye on her, and offer her a bland diet of boiled chicken and white rice for the next couple of days.

Almonds are not toxic to dogs and I wouldn’t think there is anything in this granola that would be dangerous. It could cause stomach upset but seeing an emergency vet now probably wouldn’t change much - I’d just monitor her for any vomiting or diarrhea and take her to a vet for symptomatic treatment if it occurs. I don’t think there is anything preventative to do.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Miki! I think it depends what kind of Almond oil you are referring to: Food grade or Essential oil that may have other ingredients? It also depends on how much she actually ingested. Food grade almond oil contains a lot of fat and essential oil I'd worry about the other chemicals. The fat in food grade can cause stomach upset (vomit, diarrhea, not eating) or pancreatitis. Since she seems fine I would recommend watching her closely for GI upset. I would also consider feeding her a bland diet of boiled chicken or hamburger with rice for 3-5 days. I hope this helps!

Oh no. That was not very wise of him to eat all that peanut butter. Unfortunately whats done is done. The best thing you can do now is to feed him a very low fat diet for the next 7 days. I would recommend the Hill's Science diet I/D low fat. Boiled plain chicken and rice can be given tonight if you can't make it to your vet right away, but after that go with the prescription food only, then slowly transition him back to his normal diet. You will need a prescription from your vet to purchase the food at your local pet store. Best of luck with your Beagle and I sure hope he doesn't have another episode of pancreatitis. Best wishes and take care.

Walnuts are not considered toxic in dogs unless the actual shell of a walnut is ingested or the walnuts are moldy. These nuts do, however, contain a large amount of fats and oils which in some dogs can result in gastrointestinal upset such as vomiting and diarrhea, and in some cases pancreatitis. I would monitor your dog closely for these symptoms and seek veterinary care if they occur. You can read more about GI upset at http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=353. Best of luck to you and Libby!!!

Hello. As long as there were not a majority of macadamia nuts in the mix, there are no significant worries. Trixxie may vomit up the whole thing, or she may have some diarrhea, but this will all be self limiting & usually does nor require medical care. The only possibility of problems could come from the relatively high fat content of the nuts which may cause a bout of pancreatitis. So if Trixxie vomits or has diarrhea multiple times, accompanied by loss of appetite, excessive water intake & any indication of fever or abdominal pain, have her seen as quickly as you can.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor guy! Pancreatitis can cause vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia and belly pain. It is a cause of vomiting and diarrhea but it isn't the only cause. Other causes are: intestinal parasites, viral or bacterial infections, toxin ingestion, IBD, food allergy/intolerance or reaction to eating something outside or a new treat/food/people food. Since he has been low grade vomiting now for 2 days it is best to have him seen soon if it continues. It is encouraging that he is eating. I would be sure you fasted him for 12-24 hours then resume feeding with a very bland diet of boiled chicken or hamburger with rice. Make the meals very small. Only offer small amounts of water. If he is lethargic, won't eat and the vomiting continues even on a low grade scale he should be seen before the weekend. I hope this helps and I wish you all the best!
