Hello, I would recommend taking Leo to be seen by his veterinarian. If Leo ingested a large piece of bone, it could become stuck in his intestines and require surgical removal. Ingestion of bones can also cause inflammation of the pancreas, perforate the gastrointestinal tract, break teeth, and more. Puppies should always want to play and eat, so a lack of energy and appetite is very concerning. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
