What do I do if my puppy ate ham?

If your dog vomits after eating ham, call your vet immediately and avoid ham in the future. Do not give your dog ham bones. When cooked, they soften and splinter easily when dogs chew on them. The splinters can cause the dog to choke or tear their mouth, throat or intestines or create blockages in their intestines.

What should I do if my dog ate a cooked ham bone?

Go to the Vet Even if you take preventative measures, your dog may still end up suffering damage after eating ham bones. If you notice symptoms such as lethargy, vomiting, or constipation within 24 hours of ingestion, you should take your dog to the vet as soon as possible.

How long is the critical time window after a dog eats a bone? The critical period after a dog eats a whole ham bone usually lasts around 72 hours. During this time, you need to be extra vigilant about your dog's activity as this is where usually things go wrong.
