Why It's Dangerous
Vegemite, like Marmite, is a concentrated yeast extract very high in sodium. A dog eating a meaningful amount directly can take in a concentrated salt dose relative to their body weight.
Symptoms to Watch For

- Vomiting
- Diarrhoea
- Lethargy
- Seizures in severe cases
Vet Guidance
Contact your vet if a significant amount was eaten directly from the jar, given the concentrated salt content.
