As long as you give it to him in moderation, it should be fine!
Good Luck!

Nothing wrong as long as not to much. In my opinion some types of ham are quite high in salt due to curing.

it wont cause any serious damage (unless your dog is diabetic or has an overactive immune system) the worst thing for a dog is fruit it can cause kidney failure. I know because my dogs love fruit

Be very aware of pancreatitis.

Dogs fed high fat foods, and greasy food can be prone to this.

Yeah, just don't give him too much. You don't want a fat chihuahua.

well the fact that you have fed him with it and he ate, is still alive should give you the answer.
