Mixed breed's question about Peach Pits Poisoning

Question

My dog probably ate a nectarine pit. He is 55 lbs and it was only one pit. I am hoping it won't cause a blockage because of his size but I am also concerned about the potential cyanide effects. Everything I read provides symptoms but does not indicate how soon putt how long after ingestion these symptoms can occur. I need to know when I should be looking for them. Thank you.

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question.    

If he did not chew the pit, the cyanide effects should not occur.  If he did chew the pit, it would not take long for the effects of cyanide to occur, and it would be best to have him seen by a veterinarian if you see any of those signs.
