My dog ate a baby wipe. What should I do?

If you’re like me, you use baby wipes to clean your dogs face or paws after going for a walk outside through the dirt or grass. This ultimately helps to keep your house floors clean and avoid dirt from getting all over your furniture.

Otherwise, it’s likely that you have a baby and use baby wipes often for their intended purpose. Either way, I’m sure that your dog is bound to try to eat a baby wipe whether you leave one on the floor or put it in the trash.

Well, baby wipes should pass fine in your dogs stool after being eaten since they are simply a small tough cloth. After all, baby wipes were created for small children to chew on them and even eat them.

Depending on the size of your dog, the baby wipe is going to pass in their poop approximately 24 to 72 hours later.

However, if your dog is small or has digestion issues it is important to monitor for signs of choking.

- See if you can remove the baby wipe from the back of their throat. - Check for signs of distressed breathing (i.e. choking).
