Hi there! First off, no need to apologize—questions like this are really common and show you’re a thoughtful pet parent. 😊 About Benny and dill: you're in luck! Dill is generally safe for dogs in small amounts. It can even be beneficial as it has antioxidants. However, remember that puppies have sensitive tummies, so it's always best to introduce new foods slowly.
If Benny has a small amount of dill, there typically aren't any concerns. But, like with any new food, watch out for these symptoms:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Excessive drooling
- Any sign of discomfort
If you notice any mild symptoms, make sure Benny stays hydrated and monitor him closely. It’s usually okay to wait and see if the symptoms pass as his body adjusts.
However, if Benny eats a large amount of dill or experiences severe symptoms like persistent vomiting, intense diarrhea, or weakness, contact your vet as soon as possible. Severe symptoms could require more immediate attention.
It’s best to offer dill in moderation, and always remove any stems or seeds that could be a choking hazard. Everything should be chopped up to make it easy for him to chew and digest.
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.
