They're are both about 10lbs each and devoured maybe 6 pieces of uncooked bacon out of the garbarge. I'm pretty sure the bacon had gone bad..only by a day or two but they ate all of it..are they going to die?! sick maybe? or just poop it out the natural way?

They might vomit, but nothing serious will happen to them. They won't get food poisoning. Dogs have a different digestive system than humans and are able to consume foods that people never could. ☺

It depends on the situation. If the dog is whelping a litter of pups or a cat has a little diarhhea then the first option would be to handle it at home to see if the situation gets better. And while waiting people can ask other pet owners if they have any ideas on how to deal with the problem and ask for general advice. If it doesn't get better then the next option is the vet. Some people do have a few hum dingers on here, but for the most part the questions are good, valid ones.

They should be fine. Dogs are made to eat meat. The fact that the meat was spoiled could be a little bit of a problem, but the biggest thing you will have to worry about is parasites. They shouldn't get sick. Just make sure you keep up with their vet checkups and everything will be fine.

A little fat (grease) is okay for dogs it helps the coat but on the other hand lots of it makes them puke and poop (diarrhea) and if it was spoil probably even more so. You should keep your eyes on them and if they don't get better in a day then you should call your vet. My two doggies were sick about a day. But they did get better and now I make sure to keep fat away.

They might get sick and throw it up, but they won't die. For a couple of days feed them: get some hamburger, cook it up, drain off all the grease and mix it with some cooked rice. That is what the vet tells me to do when they have upset tummies.

It depends. Dogs have much stronger acids in their stomach to fight some of the ailments we would suffer if we ate rotten food. However, some uncooked meat have diseases or worms the dogs' bodies might not be able to fight very well. I would suggest visting your veterinarian, he/she will do some tests to see if they got anything. Most likely they will be fine. Good luck!

Raw meat is perfectly fine for dogs. They may however have loose stool since their digestive system has been switched to grains for so long. It won't hurt them, just a nice treat.

They should be fine. Just keep an eye on them. Dogs are able to eat many things that people can't without a problem.
