Hey, so my 7 year old golden retriever just ate a pound of raw beef that had gone bad and had been in my trash can for several days. She seems fine right now but should I be worried and take her to the vet?

Food poisoning type illnesses can occur following spoled food but generally healthy dogs may only show mild signs. I would recommend starting a probiotic and monitoring closely for any major intestinal signs requiring treatment
