should i worry that my dog ate soap?

I have a purebred Boxer who managed to get into the bathroom and ate half a bar of soap. Should I be concerned about her health? Are there specific symptoms I should watch for, and what steps should I take next?

It depends on what kind of soap. Some soaps are more toxic than others.

You should at least call Poison Control and find out what they recommend. Some people don’t realize that Poison Control assists with pets too. A lot of pets eat things that they aren’t supposed to and they can look it up for you and give you advice on weather or not she needs medical attention.

You have to know what type of soap it is when you call. 1-800-222-1222

Note: Most likely she will be fine. Most soap is not that bad. It may make sick or have diarrhea. But it doesn’t hurt to call and clear your mind….

P.S. I was one of the kids who got her mouth washed out with soap…but it wasn’t half a bar.

Bar soap? soap like that isn’t going to hurt him. Might give him an upset stomach, but that is it. Years ago parents would wash their kids mouth out with soap when they said a bad word. No one does it now, but when my father was growing up they did. And although some kids got threw up from it, no child ever had anything worse happen.

I’m sure she will be fine. My puppy just chewed up a sliver of soap last week. She was fine, with fresh smelling breath for a while.

Well he might be fine but if he starts farting out bubbles then you should contact the vet immediately.
