Keira&Phoenix Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) Just caught Phi my 7 mo pup eating a dead toad. I was watching her but thought she was munching on grass but turns out she wasn't. I washed her mouth out (sideways and with her head down so all the water ran out of her mouth) but should I be worried? It looked half gone but it could have already had something eat part of it. I will keep a close eye on her but it was only 5 mins ago, she seems fine so far. Are they poisenous after they are dead?

baifra Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Ring your local vet for advice. Sounds like you did the right thing but just to be sure and peace of mind it wouldn't hurt to call the vet. I'm sure Phi will be just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keira&Phoenix Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Thanks Shitzu and Baifra Just spoke to my vet she said so long as she isn't excessively panting, drooling and her gums are a good light pink colour she is fine and to keep a close eye on her. She also said as it was dry it is less of a risk. She seems fine is trying to con food out of me as per usual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
