A small amount of plain, cooked pork is usually fine for dogs. The key is that it must be fully cooked with no seasonings, sauces, or bones, as raw pork carries a parasite risk and cooked bones can splinter. Just keep an eye on your dog for the next day or so for any vomiting or diarrhea, and call your vet if those signs appear.
