What happens if a dog swallows a spring?
A swallowed spring is hard to pass and may lodge in the esophagus or gut, causing blockage with swallowing trouble, vomiting, drooling, and bloating. It can also scratch the tract and cause bleeding or perforation, and metal coatings may poison. Have it removed by scope or surgery if not passed in 3 days.
What happens if a dog eats iron powder?

Eating too many peaches can cause indigestion in dogs, leading to diarrhea, vomiting, and loss of appetite, and may even trigger acute gastroenteritis.

Some dogs may also have allergic reactions such as skin swelling, breathing difficulty, diarrhea, and vomiting.

B3's second ingredient is flour, so it's starchy and low-value; not ideal long-term.

What if a dog eats lemon?
Lemon's high acidity causes drooling, lip-licking, and poor appetite. The acid irritates the gut, causing stomach pain, diarrhea, or vomiting; long or large amounts raise stomach acid and cause gastritis. Do not feed lemon; if discomfort appears, see a vet.
Why does a dog vomit when frightened?
Fright raises stress hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline, reducing gut blood flow and slowing or stopping gut movement, causing retention of stomach fluid, bile, or food and leading to vomiting. Calm it and give a quiet space.
