Poultry bones, particularly when cooked, are fragile and pose a significant risk to dogs due to their small size. They can lead to various issues, such as mouth and tongue injuries, throat or intestinal obstruction, choking, potential damage to the stomach and intestine lining, constipation, re**al bleeding from sharp bone fragments, and even blockages that may need emergency surgery. Remember, we are closed tomorrow for Thanksgiving.
