will eating a antacid harm a dog?

Answer 1

I once had a vet recommend TUMS as a calcium supplement, so I'd guess not.

BTW, TUMS for calcuim is useless, since calcium requires an ACID environment to be absorbed properly.

WHEN IN DOUBT, CALL THE VET AND ASK. A phone call is free, and if you do it right away you can catch them before they switch to emergency hours.

Answer 2

I buy Royal Canin intelligent choice ordinary combination. A 30 pound bag runs about $38. That last my five puppies about 6 weeks or so (Chihuahuas). I've been feeding common combo for roughly 5 years and i'm completely satisfied with how healthful my puppies are. My oldest chihuahua will not consume most dog meals and that is the one one i've ever gotten him to consume day-to-day. as long as the food is produced, i'm going to be purchasing it for Mr. Choosy. All my different dogs show choice of the meals over all other too, simply not the exclusion of something that isn't usual combination LOL. Your puppies will normally devour a little more than they are now before they are finished developing but then the amount they need will drop off some when they are executed (puppies consume more than full grown dogs).

Answer 3

Maybe not - Per the vet, my dog gets 5mg of Pepcid in the morning and 5mg at night.

If the dog ate a lot I would call the vet though.

Answer 4

a single antacid? certainly not.
when my dogs are sick to their tummies or have diarhea I give them pepto (per vets orders)
and it hasn't bothered them yet.
If the dog had more then a couple...take them to a vet immediately.

Answer 5

If he just got ahold of one or two, he'll be fine. I'd call a vet if he ate the whole bottle. Keep those out of reach from now on.

Answer 6

A dog doesn't need that!!!!!!!!!!!
