No. Cooked plain in the oven. Ground. No bones. Are bones bad? He did have a pork bone on Friday. I doubt it would be that though, three days later???

Hm...it could be. How big was the bone? Did he chew on it, or swallow it more or less whole?

Cooked bones are bad, and certain raw bones are not good either.

It was a big bone from a pork thigh. It was cooked. He chewed on it but definitely swallowed a lot of it because when I was able to get it away from him, it was half gone. But, he has been eating twice a day since then, pooping a lot (normally) and acting fine. Wouldn't it have passed by now?

If bone chips were swallowed he could have some embedded in the GI tract.
Take him to the vet in the AM.

What could this mean? Woudn't he have been feeling sick sooner? Wouldn't there be blood in his stool? Could he be sleeping so peacefully right now if he had bone chips embedded in his GI tract? Isn't that painful? Now you're scaring me!

Well I don't know. I can't tell, only your vet can tell. Be sure to give them as much history as you can.
Let's pray for him to feel better by AM and it won't be a thing
But if he's not, please get him in.
Don't give cooked bones, ever, in the future.

If he isn't better in the morning then I would definitely take him to the vet to be sure it's not an obstruction.

Also, you should fast him for 24 hours to let his GI tract clear. Just let him have water.

At the vet now. He really didn't like his exam. 😩🐺
I'll update when I know more. He threw up again this morning and his poop is pure liquid.

Hopefully you'll get some answers soon as to what's causing this. Sending good thoughts.
