Dog was licking a piece of Tylenol easy tabs?

I don't have the slightest clue how the Tylenol tablet got on the ground, but my old dog was licking it. I smacked his nose and picked up the Tylenol IMMEDIATELY after I noticed him licking it, and it was sticky, but he didn't consume any of it. I just want to know if the dog will be ok? Yes, I'm sure it was only one tablet on the ground. I called my mom, and she said that she dropped it this morning and that she couldn't find it.

1. Yes, he'll be fine medically. Tho' after smacking him on the nose, I don't know how he'll be mentally.
2. he'll be alright. the medicine is inside the capsule.
3. Should be OK. Might phone the vet to be sure.
4. The Vet Gives That To Dogs, So Yess, Ya Dog Will Be Fine! I Give That To Ma Dogs When They Have A Reaction To Somethin!
5. Is there a possibility that he ate one? If you didn't know how the one you found got on the ground I would be worried that maybe it wasn't the only one. Just the licking may be ok but if your dog swallowed a tablet and has a low weight he could be in danger of liver failure. If you have a large dog, then you are probably ok but if hes smaller I would be concerned because the acetaminophen in tylenol is toxic to dogs. My puppy when he only weighed 7 pounds got a hold of a midol and he had to get his stomach pumped and everything. It was really scary but had he weighed more there wouldn't have been a threat.
6. He should be fine.
7. Tylenol won't hurt your dog:) But be very careful with IBProfin... it is very deadly to dogs:)
