What happens a week after a puppy eats onions?

Bringing Home a 2–6 Month Old Puppy or Kitten: A Complete Care Checklist
A new 2–6 month old puppy or kitten is fragile, and mistakes in the first weeks—too much handling, wrong food, missed vaccines—can cause stress, illness, or worse. Start by letting the pet settle alone for 1–2 hours before gentle interaction; keep the same food it had before (soak kibble if needed) and feed 3–4 small meals a day. Watch the first week closely, since transport can expose them to panleukopenia, cat flu, distemper, or parvovirus on top of stress. The vaccine and deworm timeline matters: deworm first, wait at least 7 days, then vaccinate (dog multivalent from ~45 days, three shots 21 days apart, rabies at 3 months; cat FVRCP from 2 months, three shots 28 days apart, then rabies). Don’t bathe, delay outings until vaccinated, and never feed toxic people foods like grapes, chocolate, coffee, or avocado.
What to Do When Your Pet Swallows a Foreign Object
Chewing on household items is natural for cats and dogs, but what starts as play can end with something swallowed by accident. Some objects are merely harmless, while others can damage health or even be life-threatening. If your pet ingests something dangerous, get to a veterinary clinic at once — never try to induce vomiting at home. Knowing which foods and objects are toxic, and calling the vet with clear details, can make all the difference.
