I have a large ham bone with quite a bit of ham left on it. Is it okay to give it to my dog?

No, this is not safe to give to Pippi. Dogs should never be given cooked bones as they easily splinter in the GI tract, leading to perforation and obstruction. Ham isn't healthy for dogs either. Please do not give this to her.
