My dog chewed a Brillo Pad. Should I worry if he didn't swallow?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

My Golden Doodle chewed up a Brillo Pad. I don’t believe he swallowed any of it. He’s 11 years old and weighs about 72 pounds. Should I be concerned and what, if anything, should I do?

He should be fine. I’d feed him soft food and water to clean out his mouth. This may have irritated his mouth but the mouth heals quickly. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for your dog.
