You need to go to the vet immediately! Cooked bones are horrible.. they can splinter on the stomach and intestinal tract... your dog is throwing up because it doesn't feel good... throwing up can cause some of the bone to get stuck in the throat as well. It's a good thing there is no blood, but you're not out of the woods yet. Dogs will also throw up if they are blocked... none of this sounds good to me:(
If this were my dog, it'd be well worth the emergency cost today!
Agreed. You should never let your dog actually eat the bone. When it starts breaking off pieces it's time to throw away.
To the vet. They will at least want to do x-rays, possibly a barium series to see if there is a blockage, and if so, where.
If there is a blockage somewhere, you are looking at emergency surgery.
Go to the vet now!
Don't look for answers here.
Your dog could possibly die if you wait any longer.
I very much hope you have been to the vets already.
Please let us know how you went.
Just a tip if this ever happens again, as soon as your dog eats a bone or anything else sharp and dangerous immediately feed bread and cotton wool balls (you will more than likely have to soak the cotton balls in water and force feed)
It helps cushion the bones and could stop the bones from perforating internal organs.
