Use veterinary help for a suspected exposure
ASPCA Poison Control identifies coffee and caffeine among foods and substances that can be toxic to pets. If your dog may have consumed coffee, beans or grounds, contact your veterinarian or animal poison control promptly. Do not use a website’s serving-size comparison or the absence of symptoms to decide that the exposure is harmless.
Prepare information for the professional
Keep the product or packaging available if you can do so safely. Be ready to describe what may have been consumed, the approximate amount and when it happened. Follow the professional’s instructions for your animal. This page does not calculate a toxic dose or provide treatment instructions.
Keep the preparation area out of reach
Store beans and other caffeine products securely, keep cups away from accessible edges and dispose of grounds where pets cannot reach them. Keep the same care in shared workspaces and visiting homes where pets have access. Use the linked ASPCA resource for the original general information and veterinary care for an actual exposure.
