Take it to the vet for emergency treatment. Grab the laundry powder as well, so the veterinarian can read the ingredient label and provide treatment accordingly. If you get to the vets fast enough, they will be able to evacuate your dog's stomach, hopefully before any real damage has been done. If you take a 'wait and see' approach, by the time symptoms show, it will be too late and treatment will be long and expensive.

Laundry powder tends to be pH basic, so you may see signs of caustic burns in the mouth or upper gastrointestinal tract - excessive salivation, vomiting, painful red erosion in the mouth and on the tongue, refusal to eat, etc. Severe signs of problems would include depression, lethargy, pale gums and a bloating stomach - these could be related to a bleeding ulcer in the stomach that can be life-threatening.

Is dog flea powder safe for your if the dog got some in her mouth?

Depends on how much. Any flea treatment is a poison, and flea powder is meant to be outside the dog. However the manufacturers will have accounted for a little ingestion of the powder by the dog grooming (licking) itself. Thus if only a small amount has got into your dogs mouth then there is probably no cause for concern. However if you dog has "eaten" the whole container of powder, you should probably take her to the vet immediately.

Is the gerund phrase washing the dog a direct object or a predicitive nominative?

The gerund phrase "washing the dog" functions as a direct object in this context because it directly receives the action of the verb. A predicate nominative, on the other hand, renames the subject and appears after a linking verb.


Is it grammatically correct to say the dog eat?

No, It would be "The dog has eaten," or "The dog ate."Eat is the present tense. You want to match the tenses. If the dog is presently eating, you could say, "The dog eats." But if you are referring to the past eating behavior of the dog, it is as above, the dog has eaten, or the dog ate. I eat, you eat, they eat, is all present tense. Ate and eaten are both past tense, I have eaten, or I ate, etc.

Do I rinse off colloidal oatmeal?

Not usually. The powder residue left on the skin when a collodial oatmeal bathed dog dries is what soothes the skin. The benefits of the bath come from 1) the washing/rinsing mechanism which can remove irritants 2) the absorptive and soothing properties of the powder residue left behind.
