Since your puppy is only one month old and has just eaten a cooked chicken drumstick, there are a few important things to keep in mind.

While cooked chicken is generally safe for dogs, cooked bones can pose significant risks. These bones can splinter and potentially cause blockages or tears in the digestive tract.

First, closely monitor your puppy for any signs of distress. Symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or difficulty defecating could indicate a problem with the bones.

Additionally, ensure your puppy stays well-hydrated. Drinking plenty of water can help move any bone fragments through the digestive system more smoothly.

For the next day or so, consider feeding your puppy soft foods to ease digestion and reduce the risk of any complications.

If you notice any concerning symptoms or if your puppy seems uncomfortable, it is crucial to take her to a veterinarian immediately to ensure there are no complications.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
