Hey there! Thanks for reaching out and caring so much about Luna’s diet. Let’s talk truffles: good news, truffles themselves aren’t toxic to dogs, so if Luna managed to sneak a bite of your truffle fries, there's generally no need to panic. However, the concern lies more with other ingredients like salt and oils in truffle fries that could upset her tummy.
Here are some things to keep an eye on:
- Watch for signs of an upset stomach such as vomiting or diarrhea. These might occur due to the richness of the oils or seasonings involved.
- In rare cases, excessive salt can be harmful, leading to potential symptoms like lethargy, increased thirst or urination, and in severe cases, tremors.
If Luna shows only mild signs of tummy upset like slight diarrhea or minor vomiting, keep her hydrated and let her tummy rest by holding off on food for a few hours, then offer bland food like boiled chicken and rice. But if symptoms persist or if she shows significant signs of discomfort, it’s time to check in with a vet.
Remember, it’s always okay to be extra cautious with our furry friends! If you notice severe symptoms, such as difficulty breathing or tremors, that’s an immediate trip to the vet.
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.
