Hi there! First off, no such thing as a dumb question, especially when it comes to keeping Max safe and healthy. 😊 You're doing a great job looking out for him. So, about spaghetti sauce—let's dive into that.
Generally, it's best to keep Max away from any spaghetti sauce, especially if it contains onions, garlic, or a lot of salt. These ingredients can be harmful to dogs, even in small quantities. Spaghetti sauces often have these as main flavor components, so it's safer just to avoid them.
If Max has had a little taste, don't panic. Look out for symptoms like:
If Max is showing any severe symptoms or if he ate a lot of sauce, that's when it needs a little more attention. Otherwise, mild symptoms might just require some home monitoring and making sure he stays hydrated.
Emergencies include difficulty breathing, swelling, or if he collapses—then you need to get him to a vet pronto.
At home, if Max isn’t showing severe symptoms, you can monitor him, make sure he’s drinking enough water, and feed him his regular dog food. Avoid any more sauce or seasoned human food, and he should be back to his playful self soon!
When to call a vet: If Max’s symptoms persist for more than a few hours, get worse, or if you ever feel unsure about his condition, reaching out to a vet is the best course of action.
If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
