My dog with pancreatitis ate bacon, gave peroxide, should I go to ER?

Question

My dog has had pancreatitis a few times in the past. Tonight he stole a piece of bacon off of the counter and we are afraid he is going to have a huge episode. We have him 8 ml hydrogen peroxide in wet food (he is 16 pounds) to get him to vomit. It's 15 minutes and nothing yet. What do we do? Do we wait? Do we give him more? Do we take him to the pet ER? Pet's info: Dog | Rat Terrier | Male | neutered | 16 lbs

I would not repeat anymore peroxide. Since he has already ingested it, all you can do is wait to see if pancreatitis occurs. You can feed a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice to help minimize the work the pancreas and intestines have to do. You should monitor for further vomiting and diarrhea or a painful abdomen. If you notice any of these, then get him checked right away for pancreatitis
