If your puppy accidentally eats raw meat, here are some suggestions:


1. Observe the dog’s condition: Closely observe the puppy’s behavior and condition. In most cases, eating a small piece of raw meat does not usually cause serious problems, but if you experience significant discomfort or unusual symptoms, immediate medical attention is recommended.


2. Drinking water: Make sure the puppy has enough drinking water. Fresh, clean water can aid digestion and prevent dehydration.


3. Monitor feces: Observe your puppy’s defecation. If diarrhea, vomiting or other digestive problems occur, please consult your veterinarian who can provide further advice on a case-by-case basis.


4. Avoid food poisoning: Try to avoid your puppy eating raw meat that may contain harmful bacteria (such as salmonella). Cooking meat kills potentially harmful bacteria and therefore makes it safer.


5. Adjust daily diet: If the puppy eats raw meat and has no obvious problems, you can temporarily adjust its diet and give it easy-to-digest dog food or cooked meat to help alleviate possible digestive problems.


If you are concerned that your puppy has eaten raw meat or is experiencing symptoms, please contact your veterinarian as soon as possible for professional advice and advice. They can provide more detailed and specific guidance on a case-by-case basis.
