Hello and thanks for your question. The pancreas of a dog is not designed like a humans. Humans are able to digest food that has a higher fat contense. Ham has WAY too much fat for a dog to handle. If you care going to give your pet people food please stick to bland boiled chicken. It sounds like you gave your pet a case of pancreatitis. He will have to see your regular vet for care as soon as you can. I hope your pet gets better.
