Hey there! It's great you're so vigilant about what Bella snacks on. Cashews aren't toxic to dogs, so in small amounts, they're not a big worry. However, since they're high in fat, too many can lead to tummy troubles or even pancreatitis, which is the inflammation of the pancreas.
- If Bella were to have too many cashews, you might notice symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, or a lack of appetite.
- If she just snags one or two, chances are she'll be just fine, but watch out for any signs of discomfort or digestive upset.
- Anything more serious, like continuous vomiting or signs of abdominal pain, would be a good reason to reach out to a vet.
- Should she have a mild upset, you can offer her some water and monitor her closely. No more nuts for a while!
- Definitely call a vet if she’s lethargic, doesn’t want to eat, or just seems off for more than a day.
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.
The "Ask a Vet" forum on Dial A Vet offers general information and helpful tips on pet health, but it's
not a substitute for professional veterinary care. The advice here doesn't create a veterinarian-client-patient relationship, and our vets can't diagnose or treat your pet remotely.
For emergencies or specific medical concerns, always contact your local veterinarian immediately. Your pet's health is unique, and decisions should only be made after consulting with a qualified professional. By using this forum, you acknowledge these limitations and agree to seek in-person veterinary advice for all your pet's health needs. View our
