Your dog ate pizza crust last night and vomited 12 hours later. You're understandably concerned about whether this is related to the pizza crust consumption.
- Monitor your dog's symptoms over the next 24 hours.
- A single vomit can be a normal reaction to something they've eaten.
- Seek vet advice if symptoms persist or worsen.
It's possible that your dog’s upset stomach is linked to the pizza crust. While many dogs eat things they shouldn't without consequence, some may experience digestive upset. If your dog seems otherwise well, keep an eye on him for further symptoms like continued vomiting, lack of appetite, or lethargy. If these occur, it's best to consult a veterinarian to ensure it isn't something more serious.
Book a consultation with a licensed vet at Dial A Vet for just $49 AUD if you're unsure or symptoms are getting worse.
