Your dog consumed an extra Zesty Paws calming treat beyond the usual amount, and you're understandably concerned about the potential effects.
- Monitor for any unusual behaviors or symptoms.
- The ingredients in calming treats are typically safe, but it's important to observe your dog.
- Contact a veterinarian if you notice any worrying signs.
Since Zesty Paws calming treats are formulated for occasional use and safety, most dogs can handle two treats without adverse effects. Nonetheless, you should monitor your dog for any atypical signs such as lethargy, stomach upset, or behavioral changes just to ensure they are comfortable and symptom-free. Your vigilance is key as each pet can react differently.
Book a consultation with a licensed vet at Dial A Vet for just $49 AUD if you're unsure or symptoms are getting worse.
