NawTee Dawg!

I would *NOT* have him try to hurl it up -
IF it is a large piece, it could become wedged and/or do damage coming back up.

Usually the throw-up to eliminate is only done with SOME poisons.

When the Two Mutts gobbled up a 1/2 chicken worth of cooked chicken BONES;
the ER Vet suggested QUICKLY feeding them multiple slices of white BREAD -
idea being to have the partially chewed bread form a "protective wrap" around the bones in their tummies ... and "pad" the trip out the rear end.

I "bagged" and "examined" dawg poop for TWO WEEKS - *watching* for bone fragments.
(Never found a single piece!)

I'd bet the Vet suggests an X-ray be taken.

Best Wishes!
