Answer :

Thank you for the update. If the dog was diagnosed as having distemper by a vet, then you need to read up on how a dog gets distemper. It is likely that it has nothing to do with eating chicken bones. The downside is that distemper cannot be cured. Ask the vet are the options and decide what would be best for the dog.
