my dog tore apart his bed and ate some of the foam. He is not eating and throwing up. I took him to the vet and they said he would be fine and gave him an anti-flammatory injection, fluid therapy, and some pills to give him. I have been giving him water and soup through a syringe but he won’t go near the rice and chicken that the vet recommended. Now he just hides in the corner and wants to be alone. I am worried, but they said he should be fine in a few days. What should I do?
what do i do when my dog ate foam?

Wait until it’s been "a few days". He’s not going to get better in one day. If he doesn’t want to eat, he doesn’t want to eat. Obviously, you should do what the vet said to do. He’s the expert, not us.

Just try to make sure hes comfortable. You already did what you could by taking him to the vet and making sure hes ok, he at foam so thats not going to feel good passing through. Just wait for the days your doctor said and if he doesnt feel any better take him back for another check up.
Dont worry though the vet would have kept him for observation if he suspected the dog was in danger.

If it has been a few days, you are fine. Good job for taking him to the vet! Keep an eye on his bowel movements, feedings, hydration, etc.
