Is It Bad For A Dog To Ingest Lip Balm?

Lip balm can cause gastrointestinal upset--mild diarrhea.  If you have a small dog who ate the chapstick whole then there is a concern that it will become lodged in the small intestine--this is called a foreign body obstruction.  Foreign body obstructions are an emergency.  If you dogs starts vomiting repeatedly, becomes lethargic, and stops eating have the dog examined by a veterinarian.

Honey, it's going to be like a laxitive!!! He is going to have to go to the bathroom, a lot, so be patient with him, and take him out often for the next day or two. Hope this helps.

Funny story.... I had a friend who had two pit bulls. One of them was a very rambunctious puppy who loved to dig in purses and eat chap stick, which I always have. Well, I had some medicated this one time, and it was the only time it ever made him sick. He puked a little but still got in my purse many times after that for the chap stick. Just another reason I think there is something addictive in that stuff. The more you use it the more you need it. Ever notice that??? Don't know if this answers it but I think its a cute story!

He will have the runns but make sure you give him plenty of water so he don't dehydrate. Good luck

Nothing happened to my dog when she my chapstick.  it'll be ok
