OMG, Im freaking out
This belongs in Pets, but whatever.
Louie just stole a raw chicken cutlet out of my garbage bag. I left it for one second because the phone rang.
Im so scared he is going to get sick. He devoured the whole thing.

Re: OMG, Im freaking out
This might help...
Won’t raw food make my dog sick?
Dogs have a short digestive system that is designed to eat raw food. Cooked, commercial dog food takes longer for dogs to digest and often ferments before it is digested.
What about bacteria?
Bacteria is present almost everywhere. It only causes problems when the immune system is stressed. If you’re still worried, consider Salmonella: infection is usually acquired by ingestion of food contaminated by Salmonella-laden feces. Which is more likely to be contaminated by feces, bags of kibble stored in a warehouse or chicken parts wrapped in plastic for display at your local grocery?
Dogs, and their wild ancestors, have survived eons by eating raw meat. Because they have survived by eating raw meat (sometimes rotting, dead things) it clearly shows that nature has adapted dogs to deal with the bacteria found on their food. People, however, may be at some risk when handling raw meat. Just like you would do when preparing food for yourself, be sure to thoroughly clean your hands, counters, and any utensils that come in contact with raw meat.

Re: OMG, Im freaking out
My mom's dog once ate a whole package of chopped meat. She was a little gassy, but fine.

Re: OMG, Im freaking out
I would say he's fine. I had a dog that stole so much raw food and never got sick.
Good luck.

Just because he is an animal doesn't mean he could eat raw meat. Call your vet or the emergency vet asap.
