My dog tore a non-toxic hot/cold gel pack. Should I be worried?

Question

My dog just tore a hole in my Rapid relief reusable hot/cold non toxic gel pack (for use on my sore back) when I was on another room. The bag is still full of the gel so I don’t think he had much if any. It does say it’s non-toxic but should I be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | neutered | 10 months and 14 days old | 27 lbs

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! From what I can find out about these Rapid Relief gel packs is that the contents are not to be ingested but are non-toxic. If ingested by humans or dogs there is generally no concern excepts maybe some tummy upset. It doesn't contain anti-freeze. I would confirm though with poison control to be 100% sure. There is a fee. http://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/ I wish you the best!
