Does anyone know what these berries are?

Question

My pitt mix (60lbs) ate and threw up a bunch of these a few days ago. I walked our fence line and can't find what they came from. I think our neighborhood kids are feeding her whatever they find. I'm concerned they may be poisonous. I posted the pic to my Facebook page also but more thinkers are better!

Answer

Not sure what kind of berry it is. And it's definitely important to have a chat with the neighbor kids about not feeding other people's pets. BUT if your dog is acting completely normal (as in NO vomiting or diarrhea, eating, drinking, and playing normally) than she is fine, especially since it was a few days ago. So either the berries aren't poisonous OR she didn't eat enough of them to cause more issue than a couple rounds of vomiting. HOWEVER, ANY time you are concerned it always worth calling your vet and scheduling an appointment. (And before anyone losses their shit about my comment, I'm a licensed veterinary technician. Not just some internet educated individual.)

Answer

Take her to the vet. Those are can be poisonous. Also you need to have a talk with those kids parents about that and put it in writing too.

Answer

I'm also going to print signs I can hang on our fence. Other than vomiting once she's not showing signs of illness. Energy, appetite, and personality are all normal. No runny eyes or stool problems. The neighbors across the street have a back yard that butts up against protected wetlands/forest so I'm thinking the littles are picking them and feeding them to the dog. They'll be home this afternoon so I'll stop by then.

Answer

ya...take ur dog and the berries to the vet and make sure nothing is wrong.  even early stages of parvo don't show symptoms....take puppy in.
