Chicken bones can splinter in their throat which means that they may choke.
However, I have two chihuahuas (small dogs) and I give them raw chicken drumsticks all the time, and they eat the bone.
I think it's really only a problem when they are cooked bones, although I may be wrong! But I've never had a problem with giving them bones.
If you're worried, just ring the vet.

Relax, she is most likely fine. It is true that chicken bones can splinter, but honestly the wing bones are so small they will probably just go right through. The warnings are to let you know not to feed dogs a plate of left over bones.

Keep an eye on her for the next day or so. If she is eating and drinking fine and going potty, she is fine.

It's okay, take a deep breath and calm down. You are in for a long night.

Stay up with your dog tonight. Odds are good that she will be perfectly fine. Yes, cooked chicken bones can splinter and they can hurt a dog, but its likely they won't so anything.

If at any point your dog starts acting sick or off, take her to an emergence vet clinic. (Hacking like somethings, in her throat, throwing up - especially if there's blood, or whining like she's in distress are all indicators something is wrong).

The other reason you'll be up late is that chicken wings are fatty and if your dog is anything like mine you will be making many trips outdoors to deal with doggy digestive issues.

So keep an eye on your furbaby, and relax. She's not the first dog to have eaten bones and she won't be the last.

Ok, just because your dog ate bones does not mean anything bad will happen.
You may notice vomiting or diarrhea over the next couple of days. If you do see this, or if your dog stops eating, you will need to see a vet. This can cause severe GI upset, or you may not have any problems at all.
If you are this concerned, see your vet.

Angel...you should not give your dogs raw chicken. That puts them at a high risk of salmonella and pancreatitis.

I think ur dog will be ok but if it starts acting different, like lathargic, not wanting to play, or doesnt want to eat or have a bowl movement...i would contact a vet. I have a beagle and she has eaten chicken wings before on accident out of the garbage and she is perfectly fine now and beagles arent much bigger than pugs. I hope everythings ok!!!! MY pets are like my life too!!!! good luck!!!

your dog won't die, i give my dog raw chicken bones(with the meat) and he digests it fine. the poop might be white cause of the bones, but other than that, nothing much happens.
have you seen a real dog eat? real dogs (and wolves) don't eat stupid commercial dog foods, (like they actually get kibbles in the wild from the trees or something.. haha yeah right) they eat and hunt prey. they eat the bones, the organs, the meat, the fat, almost everything.
the fried part wouldn't be good for the dog, but if its an accident, it will be okay (as long as its not like mcdonald's or something...yuck)
my dog ate fried pork (tonkatsu) when i wasn't looking and he was fine, he didn't die. (i got really mad though cause that was my dinner. ) it was on accident, btw.

and like what the other people said, as long as it doesn't splinter or become lodged into the throat or the anus, it should be fine.
raw meats and bones teaches the dogs to gnaw and chew so that they won't get splinters and also massages the gums and teeth to avoid plaques.

Cooked bones are dangerous for dogs as they can splinter their throat. I'm not sure how many she ate, but your best bet is to call your vet and they'll give you advice over the phone.

You may need to take her into the vet but they'll definitely be able to tell you what sort of symptoms to look out for if its bad. This will put your mind at rest in the meantime because you'll know what to look out for to determine if she needs to go to the vet. Definitely get on the phone though asap.
good luck

All you or a vet can do right now is watch & wait.
Most likely, she will be all right.
If she shows signs of distress, it's vet time - and quick.
BTW Were the chicken wings cooked?
Raw bones are not dangerous to dogs only cooked ones.

Calm down and take her to the emergency vet. Or you can keep an eye on her overnight and take her in the morning. If she is drinking water and not vomiting she's okay for now. Some dogs will pass the bones and some won't, but don't panic, she'll be okay. Keep an eye on her. Good luck!
