Rinse it off thoroughly in cold water and pat it dry with a clean cloth: if it still smells, then throw it out. If it doesn't smell, you can cook and eat it then.

Incidentally, uncooked salmon can be poisonous to dogs due to a parasite.

Or you could soak it in lye and make lutefisk. It's regarded as a Scandanavian delicacy, or entirely nasty which is how most people regard it. Although safe to eat, lutefisk is disgusting in this author's opinion. It comes from a time long ago when long-term storage of food was problematic in the pre-refrigeration days.

Bon Apetit!
