My puppy ate a dead mouse. What should I do if the vet is closed?

Question

My Labrador retriever puppy just ate a dead mouse that our cat had caught. I’m unsure how long the mouse had been dead. Our vet’s office is closed today. What should I do now? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 10 days old | 30 lbs

I would keep an eye on Abby for signs of any distress or illness such as vomiting, lethargy, diarrhea, etc which would warrant a trip to the ER vet. As mice can also carry parasites, scheduling a vet visit when you can and getting Abby up to date on dewormings, etc can help prevent future illness.
