Ideally, Darcy should be seen by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER. Abdominal xrays may be indicated after an exam to determine if she will be able to pass the bone or not. If not, endoscopy or surgery may be needed for removal. Induction of vomiting is usually not recommended in these cases. You should be seen by your physician to address your bite wounds.
