Hello, sorry to hear about Ali. Chicken bones in general are hollow and do not pose a high risk to your pet as they can be digested by the stomach unlike other times of bones (beef or pork). You may monitor Ali for any signs of abdominal pain/discomfort, vomiting, or persistent diarrhea. Occasionally, pets who get into things may develop a decreased appetite and soft stools for a few days that should resolve on their own. If you note any diarrhea or persistent vomiting then have Ali evaluated by a veterinarian. Hope this helps and best of luck l
