Can dogs get salmonella from eating raw eggs?

My dogs got into a carten of eggs that i set down on the counter. They only got 1 egg though. Can/will my dogs get salmonella?

It's unlikely. He will be fine.

They'll be fine.

I wouldn't worry about it. It's possible, but its rare. Even people eat eggs raw all the time. I've never gotten sick from it, and i eat raw eggs pretty often, and a dog's digestive track is far shorter (foods goes right through their system) than mine's. Doesn't allow for much time for proliferation.

Will the sun rise tomorrow?Really though, it is HIGHLY unlilkely. They are just as likely as you to get salmonella. I give raw eggs to my dogs, with their food, sometimes, they love it!

I'm not an expert...but humans can eat raw eggs. So I think your pup will be ok. Check with your vet for a precise answer.

Dogs very rarely get salmonella.Their stomach acids are stronger than ours and their digestive systems are much shorter, bacteria don't have time to take hold, this is why they can eat stuff that's been dead for weeks without getting sick! (They don't get e-coli from licking their behinds either!)

No. Raw eggs are actually very good for you dogs skin and coat. Dogs can eat a lot that humans can't because of their strong stomach acid, like raw eggs and raw meat. What do you think wolves and wild dogs eat? They certainly don't cook the bacteria out of their food.

No.I'm not going to say maybe. I can't imagine that happening if these were fresh eggs you just got at the store. People used to drink raw eggs for hang overs and raw eggs in "egg nogs" all the time. Also in many desserts.Dog's are much less sensitive to salmonella than people are.My dogs get a raw egg each about once a week. They have never gotten sick from that!Your dog should be FINE.
