If it's just half a paracetamol pill it should not be a huge problem/
But please call the vet to be sure. I don't know how old/big the pup is.
Paracetamol overdose will not be apparent at first but could damage the liver (up to destroying the complete liver) if an overdose is digested. So better safe that sorry and check with the vet.
Since you don't use this yourself your also not sure how many pills were eaten of on the floor (or wherever they got it from)
Better be safe :)

im sure your pup will be alright. its amazing what they can eat and be fine. one of my boxers once ate a packet of my OH heart tablets,we had a mad rush to the vets, i can tell you. but she was fine.

  keep tablets out of reach of children,& DOGS.
