If a lot of pizza has been consumed, it&#8217;s sensible to call your veterinarian.

This <b>can give your dogs an upset stomach and may affect their health in the long term if they eat this often.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_one_slice_of_pizza_hurt_my_dog\"><\/span>Will one slice of pizza hurt my dog?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So even a small piece can start to create a problem. <b>Don&#8217;t give your dog more than the crust from a small slice of pizza. And by far the better option is to resist letting them eat it all together. Training your dog to eat their own food, not yours, will give them the best possible nutritionally balanced diet.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_if_my_dog_eats_pepperoni_pizza\"><\/span>What happens if my dog eats pepperoni pizza?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Pepperoni isn&#8217;t recommended for your dog as it contains an unhealthy amount of sodium and fat, and it may contain seasonings that are unsafe for dogs. If your dog regularly consumes a large amount of pepperoni, your dog is at risk for digestive issues, <b>salt poisoning, kidney damage, or pancreatitis<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_should_I_do_if_my_dog_ate_a_slice_of_pizza\"><\/span>What should I do if my dog ate a slice of pizza?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>They might experience a slight stomach upset if they&#8217;re sensitive to dairy, due to the excess fat, but overall in many cases dogs are fine. If your dog ate a large amount of pizza and you&#8217;re concerned, <b>call your veterinarian to schedule an exam<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_if_my_dog_eats_a_pizza_slice\"><\/span>What happens if my dog eats a pizza slice?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If your dog eats cooked pizza, <b>it could cause vomiting, stomach pain, and diarrhea.
