Unused dryer sheets contain concentrated cationic detergents; used sheets are obstruction hazards.
Dogs that chew or swallow dryer sheets risk both chemical burns and intestinal blockage.
Dryer sheets are saturated with cationic detergents — the same caustic class as fabric softener. The sheet structure also makes them a recognised cause of intestinal obstruction. Used sheets retain less surfactant but are still problematic.

Any swallowed sheet warrants veterinary evaluation, both for chemical injury and obstruction risk.
