My dog ate a bone. Is it stuck? She's vomiting and won't eat.

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 6 years and 1 month old | 13 lbs

My mom gave my dog a bone and ever since then she’s been lethargic and throwing up and won’t eat I’m scared it’s stuck in her digestive system or something

I'm afraid it's stuck in Princess's digestive system as well. You have to take her into a vet immediately, this is a medical emergency. If she does have this bone stuck, she will need surgery to remove it. Leaving an obstruction untreated is fatal, so please take her into a vet now.
