Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Please, monitor you puppy at home. If he has not developed signs of drooling, vomiting, gagging, retching so far, most likely he will be ok. Products used for cleaning carpets are irritant to the gums, esophagus and stomach but if he is liked only small amount of it, he should not get into any problems.
