Hello there! It’s understandable to be concerned when your dog gets into something they shouldn’t. Vitamin D3, while essential in small amounts, can be toxic to dogs if consumed in high doses.
When dogs ingest too much Vitamin D3, it can lead to a few potential issues. It primarily affects their calcium balance, causing increased calcium levels in the blood. This can have a range of effects, like affecting kidney function.
Keep an eye on your pup for signs such as vomiting, increased thirst and urination, drooling, or a decreased appetite. These symptoms might take some time to show up, so I’d recommend being vigilant over the next 24 to 48 hours.
For now, try to keep your dog well-hydrated and monitor their behavior. Avoid giving them any additional treats or foods with Vitamin D until we know more about how much they’ve ingested and what the effects are.
If your dog begins showing any concerning symptoms or if you're unsure about how much they ate, it's important to act quickly. Reach out to a vet immediately.
To get personalized advice and peace of mind, I encourage you to book a video consult with us at Dial A Vet. We can guide you on the next best steps for your furry friend’s health. Stay calm—we’re here to help!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
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
