My pet ate coconut oil, now vomiting, stomach sounds, bad breath.

Typically if dogs ingest a large amount of oil it can cause gastrointestinal upset and diarrhea. I would recommend continue to monitor simba and limit the amount of water and food until Simba stops vomiting. IF Simba continues to vomit I would recommend taking her to a vet for medications to stop the vomiting and calm her stomach. I hope that helps

No, coconut oil will not help with your dogs' breath. Coconut oil has no proven medical benefits in dogs and can cause pancreatitis in some dogs. Instead, I recommend brushing their teeth with a small kid-sized toothbrush, using first water to brush the outer surfaces of their teeth, followed by a smear of dog toothpaste. Brushing daily is the most effective way to prevent dental disease and improve breath. If Enzo and his buddy's teeth have a significant amount of tartar accumulation causing the breath issues, they may need to have dental cleanings performed by their vet to first get the tartar under control. Dental bones can absolutely help further tartar accumulation, but brushing is the most effective method of dental home care.

You have all my simpathy as I have a naughty Basset Hound too. Coconut oil is very rich in fat, so I would suggest that you have him checked over as he could be developing pancreatitis . Best sooner rather than later.

It sounds as Jojo is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. the coconut could also be the cause. i would recommend taking her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

It is possible for dogs to not eat well in the heat. Same with constipation. Whether either of those are her issue, I don't know. I would STOP the coconut oil immediately. It is not really that safe as it is very high in fat. High fat can cause pancreatitis in dogs which can be life threatening. I suggest you stop the coconut oil and monitor her for a few more days. If she doesn't come right I suggest you take her back to the vet for a follow-up and some blood testing.

Yes, I would recommend that you feed and administer insulin on Lily's normal schedule. Coconut oil is not toxic to dogs, but in large quantities, it can cause an upset stomach, decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and possibly even pancreatitis. Pancreatitis in diabetic dogs can sometimes require hospitalization. If Lily is not eating her food like normal, discontinue her insulin and call her veterinarian for instructions on how to proceed. If she starts vomiting, then discontinue her insulin and she should be checked out by a vet since she may need anti-nausea medications. Any coconut oil that is not absorbed by the GI tract will come out the backside, so be prepared for greasy, loose stools. If she is having diarrhea, this may need a vet checkup.

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!
