This is perfect! (We basically just don’t want people buying pumpkin pie filling!) PS- You may notice Cruz producing a little more stool from the extra fiber - it’s nothing to worry about! Tell Cruz to enjoy!

Naughty pup! He should be fine. At worst, you may see some mild stomach upset ([vomiting](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/vomiting-1/) and/or [diarrhea](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/diarrhea-1/)). If he hasn't vomited by now, he likely won't vomit at all. Mild upset can usually be[ treated at home](https://www.petcoach.co/article/how-to-treat-your-dogs-upset-stomach) with a short fast followed by a bland diet fed in small, frequent amounts until symptoms resolve. He may also become constipated from all the treats, so if he hasn't pooped in more than 12 hours, try adding some plain canned pumpkin (**NOT pumpkin pie filling**) to his food and increase exercise. Both may stimulate defecation. Make sure he has plenty of fresh water as well. If he doesn't defecate for more than 24 hours, have him physically examined by your veterinarian.

While Halloween may be fun for us, it can be stressful for pets. Before the trick-or-treaters start ringing the doorbell, be sure that your pet is safely confined in a crate or room so that they don’t escape amidst the chaos. Keep any candy or treats out of reach of pets. Chocolate is toxic to pets, and many other treats or candies can lead to gastrointestinal upset or pancreatitis. If your pet becomes excessively anxious when the doorbell rings repeatedly, discuss solutions with your veterinarian.

Pumpkins aren't toxic. If she swallowed a large piece of the stem it could possibly cause an intestinal obstruction, so watch her closely over the next few days for anything abnormal, including lethargy, decreased appetite, vomiting or diarrhea. If see anything odd, she should get checked out by a vet.

First off, good on you for taking Deliliah into the ER vet the day she ate those things! It was exactly the right thing to do. I will say it is a little concerning that she is now struggling to poop and there haven't been any signs of the bone fragments thus far. Given that some is still coming out and she is eating and drinking normally, I would monitor her for now. Give her a tablespoon of canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) mixed in with her food to see if that helps her pass feces easier. If she is still acting this way in another 24-48 hours, or she stops eating, become lethargic, or doesn't pass feces at all, then I would take her into a vet right away.
