It calculates your record, it does not set a time
Enter the hours since the treat was given and the expected digestion time from whatever reference you are reading, and the tool returns the time left and the progress so far, along with a count of the observations you selected. Once the reference time has passed, time left is held at zero hours and progress at 100%, and the result says so.
Why there is no table of times
How long a chew or treat takes to leave the stomach depends on type, size, fat content and the individual dog, so no authoritative table exists. Rather than invent numbers, the tool only works with what you enter. If a large piece was swallowed whole, waiting is not the right move, so the result switches straight to a contact-your-vet message. Information here is current as of October 2026.
No per-treat digestion table and no risk rating are provided. This tool is for reference only and does not replace veterinary care. Contact your veterinarian right away if you notice symptoms or suspect a problem.
Frequently asked questions
Use the figure from the product information or from your own veterinarian. No authoritative table exists, so the tool offers none.
The count is a note to help you decide on a consult, not a diagnosis. With even one item, call your veterinarian and describe what you see.
No. Selecting that item switches the result to an immediate contact message. Do not wait out the digestion time.
