Puppies eating bone fragments may cut the intestine, causing damage, bleeding, and ulcers with bloody stool, vomiting, and diarrhea. Because their digestion is poor and guts immature, fragments are hard to pass, risking blockage, pain, and vomiting.
Feed easily digested foods like goat milk and puppy kibble; if abnormal signs appear after eating bones, take it to the vet promptly.
