Chicken bones are not good for dogs . If you had made them I would be worried. KFC cooks their chicken (parboils it I believe) before it's fried..so the bones are usually pretty soft.
I don't think you need to worry in this case.

Chicken bones are VERY dangerous to dogs. Since they are relatively brittle, they will splinter. The shards of chicken bone can be very detrimental to a dog, and have the potential to perforate the stomach. Pay VERY close attention to you dog in the next few hours. You should take him to the vet if you notice ANYTHING strange or a change in his behavior. You may want to take him to the vet right away, if that is possible for you to do.

Well chicken boens are not good for a dog since they splinter and can cause problems. As long as the dog is not choking or in pain it should be ok. Maybe call a vet and ask them if there is any need to worry or if you should have the dog brought in for an x-ray to may sure everything is alright.

You're just going to have to keep a really close eye on him and see if he starts acting weird.
Chicken bones are very bad for pets, because they splinter off and can puncture the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and even lungs if they happen to inhale them.
If you notice anything within the next 3 days, take his butt to the vet, pronto!

Cooked bones splinter. Raw bones don't. If your dog isn't having problems yet, it is probably 'ok'. Choking is something you would notice very quickly.

I would call your vet or an emergency clinic. They may be able to recommend a diet that will help safely carry the bones through his/her digestive tract.
