My puppy ate a peppermint candy and pooped it out. She vomited once and had 3 bouts of diarrhea, but is eating, drinking, and playing. Should I be concerned?

Peppermint candies aren't toxic to dogs but are known to cause intestinal upset, but if she is improving and continues to do so, I would recommend just keeping an eye on her and getting her to the vet if she does get sick. And be very vigilant about keeping things out of her reach she shouldn't have.
