It is difficult to say if a bone will pass safely through the dog's system or not. Much depends on the size of the dog and the size of the bone as well as if the bone was cooked or uncooked, chewed by the dog or swallowed whole. There are symptoms to watch for to know if there are problems. Sudden lack of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea or change in stool, and lethargy. These are symptoms of a blockage of the intestines and would need surgery. The other problems caused by bones is if they splinter and pierce the intestinal wall as this will cause bleeding and sepsis. Any sign of illness, if the gums are pale or white the dog should be seen immediately.

I disagree......NEVER cook your dogs bones, this weakens the molecular structure and causes them to splinter. As for chicken bones, YES, they can have chicken bones as long as they too are raw. Dogs on RAW diets eat whole raw chickens! For a great resource on this subject see Leerburgkennels.com or Google Cindy Rhodes and read her excellent information on dogs and RAW diets.

Pork chop bones and chicken bones are NOT good for dogs. These bones have a tendency to splinter and if the dog swallows too many splinters it can be very dangerous to their internal organs. Veterinarians do not recommend giving your dog any bones at all although I think an occasional large beef bone is OK. Even better are the bones you buy at the pet store, no chance of splinters!
