so... i'm chillin' on the couch munching some twizzlers, and my dog max is giving me those feed me, human eyes. my partner's like, it's just candy, what's the harm? seriously tho, can max have twizzlers, or are we gonna be making an emergency vet visit? 🤔

Hey there! I totally understand why Max's puppy dog eyes are hard to resist, but let's talk about those Twizzlers. While they're probably not toxic like chocolate or grapes, they're not exactly dog-friendly either. Twizzlers have sugar and sometimes artificial sweeteners or other additives that can be a bit iffy for pups.

Here's what to watch out for if Max sneaks a nibble:

• Upset stomach: Look for vomiting or diarrhea.
• Lethargy: If he seems a bit more sluggish than usual.
• Unusual behavior: Any signs of distress or discomfort.

Good news is, a small amount might not be too harmful, but it's always better to be cautious. If he swallows a whole bag, that's when you should be concerned. This could potentially lead to an obstruction or more severe symptoms.

At home, try to keep him hydrated and comfortable while you monitor him for any changes. If you see persistent symptoms or anything severe like continuous vomiting or lethargy that doesn’t improve, it’s a good idea to call your vet or head to the clinic.

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.
