Oh no, it sounds like you’re going through a tough moment, but don’t worry. You’re not alone in this; mistakes happen, and we're here to help. Naproxen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug meant for humans, can be harmful to dogs. It can cause stomach ulcers, kidney issues, or even worsen existing conditions.
Firstly, keep an eye on your pup for signs like vomiting, diarrhea (especially if there's any blood), loss of appetite, or a change in urination habits. These could indicate a more serious issue.
Right now, make sure he has access to plenty of fresh water, as staying hydrated is important. Try to encourage small, frequent sips rather than big gulps. Providing food can help buffer the stomach, so offer a small bland meal, like boiled chicken and rice, unless directed otherwise.
If you notice any worrying symptoms or if he seems off at all, such a change in behavior or energy levels, it’s essential to reach out to a vet quickly. It’s always better to err on the side of caution.

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
