Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! How much fiber that represents for River specifically depends on many factors. Excessive fiber may cause gastrointestinal upset including mostly diarrhea. I recommend that if this just happened, you have River evaluated by a veterinarian as they may still be able to induce vomiting to retrieve the fiber and avoid the side effects. Otherwise, monitor him closely for the possibility of gastrointestinal upset and have him evaluated if observed. Good luck and a have a great day!
