Wow, never heard of it, just googled:
 
"Certain strains of Clostridium perfrigens produce toxins which can cause  
food poisoning in dogs. Clostridium perfrigens can for instance be 
transmitted  to the dog if it eats poorly cooked meat or poultry.  In the 
United 
States  and the United Kingdom, Clostridium perfrigens is actually the third 
most common  reason behind food-borne illness in humans. 
If a dog eats contaminated  food, the incubation time is normally 8-16 
hours and the most commonly occurring  symptoms are diarrhoea and stomach 
cramps. Vomiting and fever can occur, but it  is not common. In otherwise 
_healthy 
dogs_ 
(http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/dog/health/bacterial/Clostridium.php#) , the 
symptoms will usually vanish within 24  hours without causing any 
long-lasting harm to the dog. It is however possible  for this dog disease to 
develop into clostridial necrotizing enteritis, which  can prove fatal for 
the dog. This risk is especially high if the dog has been  infected with â??
Type Câ?? strains of the bacterium, since this strain produces an  especially 
strong and damaging toxin."

Who knew???  Poorly cooked meat or poultry????
 
Looks like you need to know which strain it is Joan, hopefully not  "C".

Anyone  ever had this in a young puppy? How did it affect the dog as an  
adult?
