i use green clay as a face mask. i’m not sure if while applying it i dropped some on the floor (only a small amount). i didn’t see anything on the floor though and my dog was not next to me. if he licked a small amount would he be fine? here’s the ingredients (the last one is apparently the percentage of green clay on the ground)

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! As long as it was a small amount, I would only be worried about vomiting and diarrhea from it not sitting in his stomach well. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be concerned. Kisses to Alex!
