| I'm not sure what Disprin is. To be safe, you should call your vet and ask them.

| Oh, ok. How much did he get? If he only chewed on it a little he should be fine. If he ate a lot, please call your vet to be sure. You're sure it's aspirin, not Ibuprofen or some other pain reliever? Those can be toxic to little dogs.

| Im very sure they are the same thing. He didn't get much. He was chewing the tablet in the foil so he must have got very little in.... I'll keep an eye on him. |

| A call to the vet always makes me feel better. They can tell you if this is a "wait and watch" situation or one that needs to be addressed immediately. I hope he is ok.

| Hi guys! Just thought I'd let you know that Diji is perfectly fine after his disprin incident. It really didn't do anything to him actually. I'm so relieved! |
