My dog ate human vitamin D and calcium supplements. Is it safe?

Question

My dog ate Vitamin D 400 IU + Calcium 600 Mg Anout Two pills or more. Pet's info: Dog | Goldendoodle | Male | unneutered | 5 months and 26 days old | 60 lbs

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

A one-time dose of Vitamin D of 800IU + should not really be a problem as the normal daily dose is 227 IU/lb of food consumed on a dry matter basis and a toxic dose gtiven over months would be 2272 IU /lb food consumed on a dry matter basis. So even a high one-time dose of Vitamin D plus Calcium should not cause any toxic signs or damage.
