CALL THE VET!!!
Yes please call the vet!
Jason, please call the vets or take her there!!
I don't know if butter is dangerous for dogs. I know in Greenland they feed the sleddogs a packet of butter.. but these are hard working dogs which need every extra calorie they can get.
Perhaps she needs to vomit. You could try to let her outside so she can eat some grass...?
But obviously... Calling the vet for advice is probably the best advice I can give you.
I hope she feels better soon.

I called the vet.
The vet said to make her drink hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting.
I gave it to muffin and it worked....so I think she should be ok now!
Thanks all.
Jason
I hope so!!
Please keep a close eye on her and give us any updates!
Did they say what butter could do? I've never heard of a dog, or anyone for that matter,eating so much butter. :p
It will probably give her the hershey-squirts. Hopefully nothing else. :)

Feel better Muffin!
How's Muffin today, anyone heard? Tawny once ate 2 whole trays of uncooked shortbread cookies, like a pound of butter, she just licked her lips and looked for more treats. Never a problem, I called the vet and she just told me to look for gas pains, ie not being able to settle down and lots of panting. It didn't bothered her in the least. Apparently is hard on the liver? I guess we were lucky.
Oh Muffin, I hope you are feeling alright today.
This reminded me of a story from when Justin was little. He dared his cousin, Jeff, to drink a tub of melted butter, and Jeff did. They took Jeff to the hospital and he had to drink charcoal. Justin was living with his aunt and uncle at the time and Justin and Jeff got into a lot of trouble, that wasn't the only trip to the hospital while Justin was living with them.:rolleyes:
oh dear,,, thats alot of butter,,,, poor lil guy.... hope hes better now!!!
:eek: that had me spitting my coffee on the computer screen. LOLQuote:

If Muffin is like my Tawny, off the kitchen table when no one was looking. They can be real fast about stuff like that!
