So, Casper jumped up & grabbed most of a whole chicken off of the kitchen counter & ate it...bones & all. There was NOTHING left of that Boston Market bird, not even a lick. So now what? Wait & watch? Anyone else's dood ever do this?
This comes on the heels of him eating the piping off of my sons art smock - about 3 feet of it...that made him significantly uncomfortable! Took him to the vet & she gave pills to coat his stomach & we played the wait & watch game...it all came back out & he's better, but now CHICKEN BONES!!!! Any advice is appreciated : )
Lots of people feed their dogs raw chicken, bones included, with no problems. But cooked chicken bones get soft and can easily splinter. He didn't exactly dissolve the thigh bone...he chewed it into small enough pieces that it was able to pass in his stool.
At any rate, I'm glad he's okay.
