First, calm down and observe whether the dog has symptoms of overeating:

1. Dogs will have symptoms such as diarrhea or constipation in varying degrees.

2. Dogs vomit, and the vomit is in the form of foamy mucus and gastric juice. Depending on the nature of the disease, the vomit is mixed with blood, bile, and mucosal fragments.

3. Dog poop is initially a mixture of water and feces, and then becomes watery, sometimes mixed with tissue fragments and blood.

4. Petting the dog’s abdomen will cause pain, mild yellow and white tongue coating, accompanied by symptoms of dehydration and yellowish urine. The course of the disease is usually about 2 to 5 days.

Then perform different treatments according to different situations:

 1. When the dog’s life is in danger

Send to the hospital immediately. Depending on the dog’s condition, the vet will choose to regurgitate the dog’s stomach or perform surgery to remove the food from the dog’s stomach.

 2. When the dog’s life is not in danger

It is recommended to give dogs some probiotics, which will help their gastrointestinal digestion. It has an auxiliary treatment effect on general dog diarrhea and constipation. The effect is still good. However, if you find that your dog has loose stools or watery and mixed stools, If there is mucus or blood, you can give gentamicin and berberine according to the doctor's advice after consulting your veterinarian. In addition, if your dog can exercise, take it out for a walk.
