I ate a whole bottle of vitamin C once and I was okay. Didn't catch a cold for a whole year. I'm sure your doggie will be fine. We have pretty tough tummies. But, like I always tell my master, if you don't want me to get into mischief, check things out before you leave me alone. I can't always be good, even though I try.

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://tinyurl.im/6g7GC

A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

Dog Training is all about getting your canine to behave well, but some people do it for sports and other entertainment purposes. Some of the other reasons people train their dogs are:

It rewarding since you get a sense of accomplishment once a dog can do something new.
It is a good opportunity to bond with the dog - this is important for the dog and for the owner.
You can make money when you train dogs as a business or for sport.
Training the dog is fun and it challenges the owner and the dog.
Different trainers have different techniques for training their canine. However, some techniques are more effective than others. To learn about the best techniques, visit a registered dog trainer, talk to a veterinarian, or do online or offline research.
There are several types of training that you, or a professional, can explore to train dogs and these are:

1) Behavior and obedience training: One training that is universal is behavior and obedience training. This is done on dogs of all ages, but it is better to start when the canine is a puppy because as they say, it is hard to teach old dogs new tricks. Behavior and obedience dog trainingbrings out the best in the dog and it makes understanding each other easier.

2) House training: House training is very important and it should also start when the dog is still a puppy. House training is all about training the dog to have house manners and to respect your space. There are several techniques used for this and they include crate training and pad training for training the dog to 'go' outside.

3) Positive reinforcement: Positive reinforcement is a new type of training approach and it is all about rewarding the dog for good behavior or for learning a new trick. All animals tend to perform better when there is a promise of a reward. Possible rewards are snacks, interaction with other dogs, giving the dog your attention, or giving the dog tug toys - the reward should take into consideration what the dog likes because dogs are different.

4) Negative reinforcement: Negative reinforcement training approach has been used for many years where the dog is punished for failure to learn or to behave properly, but this does not work because it only makes the canine scared and causes it to lose confidence. Negative reinforcement techniques included beatings and electric shocks.

5) Trick training: Trick training is done for fun, by those who want a sports dog, and those involved in other entertainment activities such as the circus. You should choose the dog carefully to avoid frustration because some dogs are easier to train than others.

6) Teething: It is important to train dogs when they are teething because they are under a lot of pain and they usually chew on furniture such as table legs, shoes, and even wallpaper. Possible training techniques for discouraging the chewing are bad-smelling sprays on items that are at risk and giving the dog chew toys.

7) Command training: It is possible to train dogs to follow commands. These commands include 'sit', 'attack', and 'fetch', among others. This requires patience and there are various techniques of dog training that can be used to achieve this such as giving rewards.

My ten month old bull terrier puppy ate a bottle of brake fluid, and a box off RATTEX, his stomach was a bit loose but he was ok, only 2 years later did the poisen actually beging to affect him or so my vet told me.

Give him alot of milk that will loosen up his stomach properly and should get all the bad stuff out of his system.

yes, my dog has had worse. including acne pills and wax. not that i feed her any of this stuff its just you drop one and the next thing you know shes swallowed it.

It should be alright. the most the vet can do is to pump her stomach but i think the vet will likely say that it will just naturally pass through

Well depending on how high the dosage of the pills? but just keep an eye on it, make sure it's drinking & eating like it normaly would (not trying to be sick) but make sure it's stool is normal as well. If anything changes in it's normal everyday routien then you should have it checked out.

dogs take the same antibiotics as humans and i would just treat it as if a kid had taken them and give the dog some milk to line the stomache and just keep an eye on her. If she has ingested to much for her body to handle she will just vomit what her stomache can't handle.

If she is crazy about cucumbers, they are fine as a snack or treat, but cucumbers are not enough for a balanced diet alone. If I'm understanding your post correctly, it sounds as if her main food has been cucumbers. Cucumbers are almost all water and provide little nutrition.
