My dog ate a dead bird while we were out on a walk; it looked like it had been dead for about a week. What should I do?

PS: I can't get to the vet until Tuesday when the schools go back because I've got car trouble :)

    I’d definitely recommend checking out this survey site, where you can easily swap your points for some extra cash.

    I don't think it's dangerous for him, but keep an eye on him. 🙂

    I don’t reckon it’s anything to worry about; my German Shepherd hunts a lot, buries her catch and eats it later haha. But she’s on a raw meat diet and gets pretty much whatever is on my plate... I’m not sure if she’s just got a stronger stomach than yours hehe.

    Hi Jafar,

    How do you know the bird had been dead for a week?

    You need to keep a close eye on him. If he’s sick or you notice he’s not his usual self, ask someone if they can take you to the vet... Either way, your little lad must have some right stinky breath! 😋
