My dog just ate four small pastries that were sweet. They have no chocolate or grapes and such but they are pretty sugary. What should I do?

Monitor for gastrointestinal upset (vomiting and/or diarrhea). You may want to withhold food for the next 24 hours, allowing small amounts of water or unflavored PediaLyte. If Louis develops GI upset, the fast followed by a bland diet fed in small, frequent amounts will typically resolve the issue. Transition slowly to his regular diet after symptoms abate. If they don't or if he develops lethargy, loss of appetite or abdominal pain, have him examined by your veterinarian.

    They can hide and withdrawn if they do not feel well. I doubt at his age it is from you correcting him. i would be worried his stomach is upset or hurting that is causing him to not feel well and not eat. If vomiting starts or diarrhea is noted, then I would have him checked by your vet. You can try to feed chicken broth or bland chicken and rice to help with his stomach. If there is no improvement by tomorrow, I would get it checked
