Oh no! Poor Ollie... well he might surely have the ole doggie runs. Poor little devil. Never underestimate the ability of a doggie to get into a cupboard full of yummy things! ;-)
In general Dentastix seem to have benign ingredients:
Rice Flour, - this isn't the greatest ingredient and can sometimes cause a real spike in blood sugar so Ollie might be a bit hyper today. I'd think about giving him an extra walk.
Wheat Starch, - same as above
Glycerin,-vegetable fat. This will probably be what gives Ollie the most trouble. Hope you have a carpet steamer handy
Gelatin, Gum Arabic, - these are binders so if you're lucky they will counterbalance the glycerin!
Calcium Carbonate, Natural Poultry Flavor, Powdered Cellulose, Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Salt (Iodized), Potassium Chloride, Vitamins (Choline Chloride, L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate [source of Vitamin C], Vitamin A Supplement, Niacin, D-calcium Pantothenate, Folic Acid, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Riboflavin [Vitamin B2], Pyridoxine Hydrochloride [Vitamin B6], Dl-alpha Tocopherol Acetate [source of Vitamin E], Thiamine Mononitrate [Vitamin B1]), Potassium Sorbate (a Preservative), Smoke Flavor, Zinc Sulphate, Green Tea Extract, Turmeric, Iron Oxide, Copper Sulfate.
And the rest is a bunch of vitamins and other garbage that should not hurt him. All in all Dentastix don't have very good ingredients and in my opinion they are over priced. I have heard some people swear that they have excellent tartar removal effects though so I've decided to try them. My Rusty (who needs them) turns his spoiled little nose up at them anyway! LOL
Anyway I'd keep an eye on Ollie and if you can get him to eat a couple of tablespoons of canned pumpkin I'd definitely give him some. That can really help stop doggie diarrhea! You can give him the pumpkin mixed up in some cooked chicken if you can't get him to lap it up. You can also give him a tablespoon of yogurt. That can help too, unless you know that Ollie normally has sensitivity to yogurt or cheese.
