Hi there! I totally understand why you're feeling overwhelmed. Let’s take a deep breath together. 😌
The good news is that marigolds are generally considered non-toxic to dogs, so there's no need to panic. Eating a few petals shouldn’t be too dangerous, but there are a few things to watch out for. Keep an eye on Daisy for these symptoms:
- Mild stomach upset like vomiting or diarrhea
- Drooling more than usual
- Loss of appetite or lethargy
As long as she seems comfortable and these symptoms aren’t severe, you can monitor her at home. Make sure she has plenty of water and keep her diet bland and simple for the next 24 hours. If she vomits or has diarrhea, try small amounts of boiled chicken and rice to soothe her tummy.
If Daisy starts showing signs of serious discomfort, like persistent vomiting, diarrhea, or if she seems in pain or very lethargic, then it’s time to give the vet a call. But remember, what you’re describing sounds manageable at home so far.
You're doing a great job just by reaching out and making sure you have the right information. Hang in there!
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.
