My puppy ate a glue trap. Should I be concerned and what to do?

Typically the glue of these traps are non-toxic, but I would put an Ecollar on Besitos to keep him from licking at the glue. You can make one at home, and I will put a link below on how to make one. I would have him seen by a vet in the morning to get help taking the rest of this glue off. http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html

Watch for vomiting, retching, diarrhea, lethargy and any other signs that could indicate that your puppy is not feeling well. If any of this occurs, then you need to take her to a vet as she could have a blocked intestine. Since she only ingested this an hour ago there is a possibility that you can have a vet make her regurgitate what she ate, if you are very worried. Look around the floor where she picked this up whether there is more of the substance.

While the ant bait itself is mildly toxic, the concern lies in if Tim ate the trap's plastic housing. It's possible that the plastic housing could cause an intestinal tract obstruction or damage to the GI tract . If he just chewed it and didn't eat any part of the trap itself, he should be just fine. If he did eat the plastic housing, I would monitor him for sign of obstruction and damage to the GI tract such as lethargy, anorexia, vomiting, blood in the vomit, diarrhea, and blood in the feces. If you see any of those signs, I would have Tim seen by a vet. I hope this helps!

I am sorry to hear about your concern for Charlie! Hopefully it will turn up but monitor your pup’s behavior for the next few days. Watch for a decreased appetite, lethargy, vomiting, abdominal pain, or difficult having a bowel movement and if these occur seek veterinary care.

If he only vomited the one time, then I would continue to see how things go. If he continues to vomit and develops other symptoms such as refusal to eat, vomiting up water, or becoming lethargic, then I would definitely worry about a foreign body obstruction and get him seen right away. But so far, it sounds like he is doing pretty good considering he ate something he shouldn't have. Best of luck with your puppy Charlie and I hope that he does well moving forward. Take care.

How naughty of Charlie to do that. It sounds like he may have vomited it all up, which would be the best case scenario here. Since he is still passing stool and eating well, it is ok to monitor him for the next 24 hrs to see how things pan out. Try offering him a bland diet of boiled plain chicken and rice or cottage cheese for the next few days, then slowly introduce his regular kibble back. If he continues to vomit, becomes lethargic, or has a loss of appetite then I would be concerned about a possible blockages and recommend he be seen. I hope everything works out well for your pet Charlie. Best wishes and take care.

He is likely going to be fine but to be on the safe side I would called the pet poison hotline to ensure there isn't any hidden toxins that we need to watch out for. There website is below which will take you to their number. I hope this helps! https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/
