My dog ate a tea bag. Clover, 4 Beagle, about 19 pounds. 4 years old. No medical issues

Hello, my name is***** and I am a licensed veterinarian here to help answer your questions. Are you available to talk about Clover?

Welcome. Can I ask what type of tea? And if there were any sweeteners in or around it?

Gotcha. She will likely be just fine. She is large enough that should pass through. I would recommend to feed her something very bulky - like 2-3 slices of thick bread. This will help to ball it up and move it on through. There should not be any toxicity from this either.

No. It will pass with everything else. Also why the bread will help to ball it up and protect her stomach and intestines from the staple if the edges are out.

Haha. yes no raisin bread. You can do rice. I would do 1 cup now, and then another cup in a few hours. That should help to push it on through. YOu can also monitor her poop for the bag. You should see it in 24-48 hours.

No. There is minimal caffeine in it compared to coffee or chocolate. I doubt he will experience anything. Especially if it was already steeped.

You're very welcome. Let me know if you think of anything else.
