Help! Puppy has grossly overeaten!!!

:smt100

Remember Meg? My mum's unbelievably greedy westie puppy? Well she's just chewed her way through the new bag of Burn's minibites mum had bought, and eaten enough to make her stomach blow up like a balloon (about 200g on top of her normal food )

What do we do? Mum's trying to get hold of the vet, but is there anything she can do herself (apart from locking the bl***y food in a safe frome now on)?

OOOOOOPPS!!!!!
Don't really know, I guess if she seems okay it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but i really haven't got a clue. It may just take a while for her to digest it???
Sure someone that knows will be along soon!!!
Norty puppy!!!!!!

Apparently she's feeling miserable, but her tummy is tight as a drum, so not very surprising

too much food in the tummy is probably causing the tight drum feel.

Dont panic!!

Keep calling the vet or try another one.

Dont give any water to the pup at all.

This is why I'm asking if it's dry food. Hope your Mum gets it sorted honey
