after i just sprayed tire shine on it.

she threw up last night and doesn't look so hot this morning. is a vet visit in need or just wait it out and see? she did eat breakfast and has held that down that i know of.

My wife sent this picture this morning. Usually this one and my yellow lab are rasslin'. apparently she wasnt in the mood to play. (that's my wife's messy closet, not mine)

There is a pitbull in your house fool. Shoot it!

ETA: I think she is fine. If she throws up again or has trouble walking, peeing... etc I would bring her in though. The fact that she held food down is good. And next time.... don't watch her lick your tires, stop her.

The container should have some info about poison control.

Have you considered calling your vet for some advice?

UNCOLLARED

That's her problem.

Just nervous about not having a collar.

Why does that matter? Your dog ate something that is possibly poisonous. Get it to the vet.

what drinking? she retaining water normally?

check her poo.. if it is hard and normal looking you may be ok, if it is loose, slimey and inconsistent to regular poo.. you may want to take her to the vet

You can make jokes, but i would still at least call them. That stuff may cause her liver \kidneys to shut down and by the time you noticed she's not doing well it may be too late. Sometimes poison takes longer to do the damage so i would consider calling at least.

you hit the nail right on the head, and this is coming from a dude that comes from a family of vets and going into the business myself.. that being said, we always listin to what our clients say before we tell them to come in.. because my dad and the rest of my family doesn't want to see the pet if it's not worth seeing that day, they already have enough to deal with..

and as you know, with most vets these days you could be looking at a pretty good sized bill, so it seems you are going about this the right way..

personally, i'd wait it out.. it's amazing how resilient dogs digestive systems can be
