King 5.com has a story about a dog who nearly died after eating a small piece of raw salmon.
Dr. Cherie Guidry of Helping Hands Vet Clinic says most people don't know not to feed dogs raw fish.
"If left untreated, 90 percent of the cases are fatal, the dogs will die within 2-3 weeks,” she said.
After weeks of antibiotics and de-worming treatments, it’s safe to say you won't find salmon in the Greger's kitchen, but you will find their survivor.
If your dog gets a hold of raw salmon get to the vet. And remember, sometimes the symptoms take weeks to show up and there are other dangerous fish.
