Key Steps to Take:
Monitor for Symptoms: Watch for signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or abdominal pain.
Contact Your Veterinarian: If your dog exhibits any concerning symptoms or if you suspect they ingested something harmful, seek veterinary advice promptly.
Prevent Future Incidents: To prevent future incidents, consider using dog-proof trash cans or placing trash out of your dog's reach.
