Nova ate 4 burgers with onions in them about an hour ago


It’s important to know that onions are indeed toxic to dogs, and consuming them can lead to serious health issues, including gastrointestinal upset and damage to red blood cells, which may result in anemia. Since Nova has ingested a significant amount of onions, it’s crucial to act swiftly.
Please keep a close eye on Nova for any signs of distress, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or difficulty breathing. These symptoms could indicate onion toxicity. Although you might come across home remedies suggesting you induce vomiting, it's essential not to attempt this without professional guidance, as it can sometimes cause more harm than good.
Given the potential severity of onion toxicity, I strongly advise you to contact a veterinarian immediately or take Nova to an emergency veterinary clinic. They can provide the necessary treatment, which might include safely inducing vomiting, administering activated charcoal, or offering supportive care such as IV fluids and monitoring blood work.
When it comes to potential toxin ingestion, it’s always better to err on the side of caution. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out. Thank you.
