How long does it take for a GSD and Black Mouth Cur to eat a 18oz steak when your back is turned?

thumperfbcHow long does it take for a GSD and Black Mouth Cur to eat a 18oz steak when your back is turned?
Our late GSD was good about leaving food alone that wasn't hers but she absolutely loved her food. She got a steady diet of anything my buddy who worked the meat counter st a local grocer had to throw out due to expiration. She dined on such delicacies like scallops, swordfish, every cut of pork and fowl you can imagine, and lots of other fish. Beef products where few as they apparently got "repurposed" into marinated meats.
But I once dog sat for my sister and one of her giant schnauzers stole an entire chicken off the counter.

This guy once took a ham off of the counter, fresh out of the oven and took shark sized bites out of it in about 8 seconds.

We had a hottie/lab with the same issue, we called him the butter bandit. On the advice of a friend we cut a stick the long way, dug out a little, added cayanne pepper and put it back together...that was the last stick of butter he ever touched!

ASKSmithBack in the day I had a Rottweiler and a roommate.
My roommate won a burrito eating contest at a local minor league hockey game.
I bet my roommate a case of beer my Rottie could eat a burrito faster than him.
I got my case of beer. I don't think my Rottie took a bite, just swallowed it whole.

ShneaSIGIt's a very difficult question to answer, because, physically, the steak is already consumed by the time the light travels from the pooch across the room to your eyes so that you even know the event has occurred. It's faster than your nerves and brain can process. Because of our current understanding of physics, we can deduce what had occurred, but to an observer, it's as if the steak has simply blinked out of existence.

bettysnephewI can verify that an Old English Sheepdog can eat a steak in about 4 microseconds. It was on the plate, it was gone. Only thing that gave a clue was that Alfie was still licking his chops for about 30 seconds after inhaling the meat.

sandman76My Golden ate a slice of pizza once. One of those New York style slices that are huge and usually eaten folded in half. Right off my wife's plate. She got up to grab the remote turned around just in time to see it disappear. Amazing how a dog can do that shit without choking to death.

RileyHaha. My dogs are good about the counter, but they're very interested. We don't generally leave anything unattended just in case. Especially at dog level.
Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs.

I had an Old English... Pretty amazing dog. Don't let it get skunked though, nothing works on that fur monster but shaving it down!
She used to herd everyone, and they are very territorial, none of my siblings were allowed into the other siblings bedrooms. If I went in one their rooms or they came into mine she would bark like crazy because she knew that wasnt your room. Super smart, very protective and aggressive with anyone she didn't know. Anyone she did know was fine, no problem. Ran like a big furry bear

Jesus. Rottweiler farts after a burrito. Doesn't even bear thinking about...

SuhlShooterI lost 3 of 5 pounds of ground round that I was frying on the stove top. Out of a hot frying pan! With the heat on! He stood on back legs, paws on either side of a hot frying pan! Not just starting to cook, but almost done!

Spooky39So for future reference.... For those that had their dogs scarf down raw meat products, especially chicken, did you take any courses of action following those incidents? Any concern for bacteria crap? Just expect a couple maybe heinous BMs or a round or two of baring? Anyone have to deal with consumed bone-in products? I ask because I have an 80 lb Chocolate Lab (2yo) and a 40 lb Australian Cattle Dog (1.5yo). Working on training them, but they are young, thick-headed, and driven (part of the positives of their breeds). Thanks!

My uncle has 2 wolf hybrids that he feeds raw, bone in chicken. One of them is 6 or 7 years old. They don't seem to have any problems. Two things to note: this is their steady diet so it is not an abrupt shock to their system and they are outside dogs so minor upset stomach issues might not be noticed.

I think it depends on what the dogs are used to. Fresh, raw meat is far from the worst thing my dogs eat. They regularly drag thoroughly rotten carcasses of deer, hogs, javelina and aoudad up to the barn and eat on them until I find out and take them away. I've seldom observed any unusual results aside from turds with lots of hair incorporated into them.

Wait. You still used the remaining 2 pounds of ground beef?
