Dog ate a starfish

Question
I know it sounds retarded. But my dog ate two starfish that have been dried. We picked the starfish up from the beach a few months ago and accidently left them on the floor. Are there any reprucussions that we may have? Should we induce vomiting? Can this potentially be life threatining to her? Thanks for your help!!

Answer
No it doesnt sound retarded at first I thought your dog had eaten your pet star fish which would have been a very expensive appitizer! Unless the dog starts to moup around...looking ill or refusing to eat anything refusing to drink or play I wouldnt worry if you do see the dog starting to show these signs get him or her into a vet as soon as you can.
