Your dog has ingested a significant amount of Dr. Bronner's baby soap. While non-toxic, ingestion can still cause gastrointestinal upset.
- Monitor for vomiting or diarrhea
- Ensure your dog stays hydrated
- Contact your vet if symptoms worsen
Dr. Bronner's baby soap is made from plant-based ingredients and is generally considered safe for occasional exposure. However, consuming a large amount may irritate your dog's stomach and intestines. Monitor your dog closely for any signs of distress such as vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy. Make sure he has access to plenty of fresh water to prevent dehydration. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult with a veterinarian for further advice.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
