My dog just got into the trash and I think he ate some of the chicken bones I threw out yesterday. I've heard those are really bad for dogs? He seems fine right now but I'm freaking out a bit. Should I rush him to the vet??

My dog did the same thing last year and it freaked me out. I got some solid advice to avoid this in the future – after you deal with the emergency, of course – like getting a dog-proof trash can. Might help prevent this kind of scare again!

My dog did this once and he was okay, but our vet told us we were lucky. Keep a close eye on your pup. Watch for vomiting, difficulty pooping, or lethargy. Those could be signs of a blockage. If you notice anything off, or just for peace of mind, a vet visit is a good idea.

Hi, Vet Tech here! Cooked chicken bones are dangerous because they can splinter and cause blockages or tear the intestines. Please don't wait - take your dog to the vet immediately for an x-ray to make sure he’s not at risk for a perforated digestive tract. Keep an eye on him for any signs of distress in the meantime.
