    My dog ate a big lump of fat off beef that fell on the floor in what seems like one bite. a few hours later n he's breathing funny (kinda panting a bit) and acting off (quite lethargic, just sprawled on the floor)
    I dont know whether its just me being a bit over paranoid but is there something i should do other than just keep my eye on him?

    I have a friend who would give her dog gaviscone liquid when he would raid the fridge and eat sausages or other types of raw meat.
    She says it always works.

    Im not an expert, but I wouldn't worry about it, other than being gross, I don't think there is any harm done there! :) Maybe he's tired from all the extra calories? I defo wouldn't panic yet anyway, probably be fine in the morning.

    nah he hasnt gotten sick, he's just moping around now.
    although he's wandering about n wagging his tail so hopefully its just me worrying.
