My 5 month old standard poodle Gracee ate some of my dried seaweed. She has been throwing up and has had diarrhea since. Her energy has not changed since . What should I do?

Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Seeweed is knows to cause profound vomiting and diarrhea in dogs. Please, do not offer Gracee anything to eat or drink for the next 3-4 hrs, then try very small amount of water (2-3 tablespoons). If she keeps it down, you should offer more every 30-40 min. If she takes it ok, you should try and offer her some bland food. Cooked chicken or other lean meat would be the best options. If she is eating, drinking and keeping everything down, you can slowly offer her more food and water and come back to her normal feeding routine over 2-3 days.
