My dog ate a bone and threw up pieces. Should I induce vomiting?

Question

My dog (Cooper) a 9 month old golden retiever chewed up a cow knee cap. He grew up some chunks of bone from dime size to 1 1/4" x 1/2"pcs of hard bone. Should I give him something to have him throw up? Kevin. Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Male | unneutered | 9 months and 27 days old | 63 lbs

I would not recommend making Cooper vomit. IF he continues to vomit I would recommend taking him to the vet as soon as possible for a possible obstruction. I would monitor him closely for eating, drinking and defecation. If he is not defecation or having diarrhea I would recommend taking him to a vet. These large bones can cause a blockage or severe gastric upset. Hope that helps
