Hello, My dog (65-70lbs) just consumed basically an entire 10 inch pumpkin pie. I know nutmeg and cinnamon are not good for dogs. Should I endure vomiting? Monitor her?

Nutmeg is basically poison for your dog and I would strongly recommend to have Rae checked by your veterinarian as soon as possible. If vomiting is induced at the vet practice is by far more effective and eventually other signs of toxicity (like neurological signs) can be treated as well.
