she bit and punctured a battery, i’m not sure of symptoms nor of what to do.
If your puppy has bitten and punctured a battery, it's crucial to act swiftly due to the dangerous substances inside batteries that can cause burns and toxicity.
First, if possible, gently rinse her mouth with water to remove any battery acid or debris. Be very careful not to force water down her throat.
Next, closely monitor her for any signs of distress. Symptoms such as drooling, vomiting, lethargy, difficulty breathing, or any unusual behavior could indicate that she has ingested some of the battery's contents.
Given the potential severity of battery ingestion, I would recommend taking her to the vet to determine her exact condition. The substances inside the battery can cause serious harm, and a veterinarian can provide the necessary treatment to mitigate any damage.
Battery ingestion is a serious emergency, and prompt veterinary attention is essential to ensure your puppy's safety. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
