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.
