A dogs digestive system is capable of handling much much higher concentrations of salmonella than a humans. The 5 dogs we currently own (JRT's, Fox terriers, and rat terriers) are all fed raw chicken as their main diet. That's right...raw chicken...with the bones in! Thighs, legs, and wings. Necks sometimes too. The bones are especially good for them. The chicken MUST be uncooked though since cooking will remove much of the nutritional values and will cause the bones to become brittle. On occasion my son will feed his dog chicken that's more than a bit past it's time (which I would think is teeming at this point with salmonella). The worst thing about this is his dog then has gas and blows everyone out the house.

No, only if the egg has salmonella. However, you can't tell if something has salmonella just by looking at it, so it is best to fully cook the egg to kill the salmonella bacteria.


What to do if your dog has salmonella poisoning?

I take it you took your dog to the vet who determined the dog has Salmonella. Otherwise, you wouldn't know it was Salmonella. The vet probably has the dog on antibiotics. Give them as directed. The next thing you should do is try to determine where the Salmonella came from. See if he got into something that he should not have gotten into. Some rawhide treats have caused outbreaks. If you think it is a commercial product, check with your vet and public health folks. Also search the internet for any reports on the products you feed your dog.
