Answer 1

and the vet was where??
conditioner mmm try drinking some of that yourself,if a child had would you be up at the hospital, the dog is poisioned maybe a vet will help how about ringing one rather than ask in here.

Answer 2

Hi Becky, conditioner, will obviously give your dogs the trots, they should be alright, make sure they have lots of water and keep an eye on them so that they don't get dehydrated, you had the right idea there. You can cook pasta or rice and feed it them to see if it helps for the diarrhea. Just make sure there isn't any blood being passed, then you may want to have them looked at by a vet. Also a little chat with poison control can put you on the right track.
Good Luck

Answer 3

Take both dogs to the vet to be checked out.

Get a bottle of the same conditioner and take that with you so your vet will be able to tell from the ingredients exactly what they've eaten.

Don't forget to mention the pen either.

Answer 4

Get them to the vets immediately or at least call them even some foods we eat can poison dogs so better safe than sorry. Vomiting can induce a twisted gut (very serious) so no food for 24 hours and plenty of fresh water

Answer 5

Your vet will need to know
1) What brand of conditioner, since some ingrediants are toxic.
2) Did they eat the plastic bottle? Did they eat the plastic off the pen? Plastic is a problem to their insides.
Phone at once with the info and good luck.

Answer 6

I've got 4 dogs just now, and i've had them ALL my life...literally!
Their deffinatly going to have boul problems like diarrea because of the conditioner...the pen...Oh dear, might need some pills to clear out the system, if they're curious dogs u need to put things on a high surface out of reach, and put little baby gates up on certain rooms that might have food or dangerous things in like the kitchen or bedroom! But i'm TELLING you that you NEED to go check up with your local vet!

Answer 7

Watch them for the next 24 hours and make sure they drink lots of water. If the Diarrhea persists, take them to the vet.

The bingo pen should be water based (Or you'd never get it off your hands...) and the conditioner shouldn't hurt them.

Answer 8

hi hon i know a lot of people have said get advice from a vet, that is quite true, you are very worried, i know so would i be, but its happened,so give them plenty of water, and watch there motions, if they have eaten the pen, it would be chewed no doubt,and pass through them,maybe give them some food.like bread and butter to absorb the liquid but they should be fine,but please keep things out of reach so as i doesn't happen again, treat them like children,you can't watch children either not 24-7. good luck but try not to worry hon, they should be fine. coral

Answer 9

i think the best thing to do is to them to the vets. there are many things that are poisonous to dogs. some of our foods are very poisonous to dogs. you dont know how the chemicals in the pen and condiction will effect them. keep what your doing give them water but take them as soon as possiable . be on the safe side..

Answer 10

I'll bet it was the conditioner that made him sick! UGH - that would probably make anyone sick.
Read the bottles (if there's anything left of them) to make sure the products were non toxic. If they were - call your vet.
