Swallowed Something

My dog swallowed an SOS pad and I want to know what to do. Should I induce vomiting or wait for her to pass it. This just happened within the hour. It is 9:00am on Saturday February 16th.

    Hi there, thanks for your question. Not really sure what an SOS pad is but i assume it's all soft with no hard plastic bits etc. Being a large breed dog, it's likely that this may just pass through but I would keep a very close eye on her for vomitting, lethargy, constipation, diarrhoea and loss of appetite.  If she begins to show any of these signs, I would have her examined by a vet.  Also, this may be unpleasent but you may want to just keep an eye on her faeces to see if she has passed it!  Good luck and let me know if you have any more questions!
