My puppy ate bat guano from hermit crab food. Should I worry?

Question

My 40 pound boxer puppy just ate about an ounce of dried bat guarano we feed our hermit crabs. Should I be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | BullBoxer | Male | unneutered | 6 months and 9 days old | 40 lbs

Hello. I do not think this will do any harm except for some possible gastrointestinal upset. Since this has been processed, it hopefully is free from bacterial & parasitic contaminants. Just watch Ray for the next few days for any diarrhea. This would be about the only thing that might bother him, but otherwise he should be just fine. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
