It sounds like your dog may have ingested some of your cat's Antinol capsules. While Antinol is generally safe, it’s best to monitor your dog for any unusual symptoms.
- Antinol is primarily a supplement intended for joint support.
- Small quantities might not cause harm but always monitor your pet.
- If your dog displays any concerning symptoms, contact your vet immediately.
Most supplements like Antinol contain natural ingredients, which are less likely to be toxic. However, every pet reacts differently, and some might have sensitivities or allergies. It’s wise to observe your dog for any signs of discomfort, vomiting, diarrhea, or behavioral changes. If any symptoms appear, or if you are feeling uneasy, consulting a vet is a prudent choice.
