What to do if the dog eats chicken bones and cannot digest them

Dogs cannot digest chicken bones. First of all, if you can see the bone stuck in the dog's mouth, you can carefully remove the bone with tweezers. Secondly, probiotics can be given to dogs to help digestion. If there is still no effect after taking probiotics, or even gastrointestinal symptoms, such as vomiting, diarrhea, blood in the stool, etc., you should take the dog to the hospital for examination in time, and then deal with it after a professional doctor makes a judgment.

Symptoms of indigestion of dogs eating bones:

1. Constipation and blood in the stool. Bones contain a lot of phosphorus and calcium, and the dog's digestive system does not have the decomposing enzymes that can decompose phosphorus and calcium. If the dog eats bones directly, the bones will accumulate in the stomach for a long time and cannot be digested, resulting in bone lime It will further affect the dog's digestive system and cause constipation. In severe cases, it may even scratch the inner wall of the intestinal tract and digestive tract, causing internal bleeding and ulcers, and then symptoms of blood in the stool.

2. Vomiting. Dogs will vomit if they do not digest bones after eating bones. The vomit is foamy mucus and gastric juice, which may be mixed with blood, bile and mucous membrane fragments depending on the nature of the lesion. Touching the dog's abdomen with hands will show pain, accompanied by symptoms such as yellowish white tongue coating and yellowish urine.

3. Loss of appetite. A large amount of indigestible bones accumulated in the stomach and intestines will cause the dog to lose appetite, and the food he usually likes to eat will also lose his appetite at this time. Some dogs may even be accompanied by complications such as lack of energy and lethargy.
