Thanks for visiting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. She may have some loose stool but otherwise she should be fine because grease isn’t toxic to dogs. If she does have a little bit of an upset stomach, then you can give her a bland diet of boiled plain chicken and rice or cottage cheese for a few days, as well as some probiotics (i.e. Culturelle) daily and that should help her stomach settle down. Otherwise she should recover within a few days. Best wishes with your pet Snow. Take care.
