Can a dog get Diarrhea from baking soda if you put a little too much in muffins by accident?

I'm having sort of a discussion about this with my boyfriend and we just don't know for sure what caused diarrhea in the bulldog, Harley after he ate 2 of the muffins.

Thanks a bunch if anyone has any info.

Again,

they were plain muffins...nothing extra from the ordinary.
The dog eats a lot of other things like bacon, scrambled eggs, gravy, food from the table, cake, stc with no problems.

Just wondering if muffins that may have had a little too much baking soda could cause awful diarrhea for him.

Do they have Bran in them?

Does he seem a bit sick otherwise? I don't know if muffins would make a dog get diarrhoea. Perhaps if he were gluten intolerant he would. But I don't know if dogs get gluten intolerance.

Perhaps to be safe, keep muffins away from him. If he still gets diarrhoea after a couple of days, you might need to consider checking with a vet. Really fatty foods can give dogs diarrhoea - vets get inundated after Christmas with people bringing in dogs with upset tums. Still, I wouldn't think muffins very fatty.

So you want to give your dog diarrhoea?

Stuff him with hot indian food. Guaranteed to make him poop porridge


Just kidding, the misnterpretation was done on purpose

I didn't know dogs could bake soda.

I called the poison contol phone number for pets and they said that a little extra baking soda wouldn't make a bulldog get diarrhea.

Someone made muffins, and the dog got a hold of two of them and had diarrhea all night long.

The only thing that gets put in muffins is:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup melted shortening

i wonder what what baked soda tastes like...hmm...*wanders into kitchen*

We're now suspecting that the person who made the muffins was playing a joke and may have put something in them that makes you have the runs.

My BF and I didn't eat any, but after the dog reacted like that, we threw them out.

They tasted bitter, not right. So I spit out the bite that I took of the muffin.

I don't know.

Pretty mean trick.

Bacterial infection is a common reason for diarrhea.
