My small dog ate onion and garlic powder. What should I do now?

Question

My dog has just ate a small chicken slider, which I've just found contains onion and garlic powder. He is a dashound jackrussel mix, and about 6 and a half pounds. I don't know how much onion and garlic was in the product, but I know he ate about half of it. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | 6 years and 1 month old | 6.7 lbs

Onion toxicosis is consistently noted in animals that ingest more than 0.5% of their body weight in onions at one time. Garlic is 5 times more powerful than the onion. Considering the fact that the quantity is unknown I think the best course of action would be to take Taquito to your veterinarian to make him sick and give medication to reduce absorption of the toxics.
