Question
My puppy ate a few pieces of pellets that come from the pellet stove. I took away any he had, but saw he had eaten some based on the crums he left. The bag had a whole in it, I cleaned up as fast as I could. Is this toxic ? Should I do anything ? Thank you

Answer
You would have to let me know what is in them. Better yet, you can call the pet poison hotline (toll free) and tell them and they will let you know.
800.548.2423 for the one at the University of Illinois.

888-232-8870. $35 consultation fee. If all else fails call the human line and ask them if the pellets are toxic.
